I wouldn't say "take over"
In the 17th century Dutch East India trading ships headed for the far east or back for home needed a refreshment station where they could take in fresh food and water before starting the second leg of the journey.
They built farms to provide ships with food but the weather at the cape wasn't great for certain crops so farms spread inland.
When the British took over the Cape the Boers didn't want to be ruled by the British so they moved inland to remain independent.
