South Africa - Embrace the MAN Strategy: Farmers are encouraged to prioritise productivity, quality, societal contribution, and fulfilling commercial responsibilities over blind compliance with state ideologies. Wherever state requirements are unlawful or harmful, farmers should strive for maximum achievable non-compliance, as prudently as possible. By prioritising the core aspects of value-creation rather than compliance, farms can serve society best and thrive while challenging or bypassing the implementation of destructive state policies. Leverage Representative Organisations: Farmers should urge agricultural representative bodies to reject BEE policies and resist government interference. Maintaining robust relationships with foreign trade partners who appreciate free and responsible trade ties is also pivotal. Farming communities need to assert their independence, emphasising their crucial roles in both domestic and global commercial spheres.
Die blote beëindiging van beurtkrag is nie ʼn voldoende beleidsdoelwit nie. Daarom moet Suid-Afrika eerder die ganse kragstelsel herbou en die samelewing toegelaat word om tot die oplossing by te dra. Dit is een van die kernbevindinge van die onlangse verslag deur die Harvard Universiteit in die VSA, getiteld “Growth Through Inclusion in South Africa”. Hierin word die oorsake van Suid-Afrika se sistemiese ekonomiese onderprestering ondersoek. Volgens dié verslag kan ongeveer 40% van die vertraging in Suid-Afrika se ekonomiese groei toegeskryf word aan die ineenstoring van nutsdienste, soos Eskom, spoorweë, hawens en ander kardinale infrastruktuur. Daarom, lui die verslag, is aandag aan die kragkrisis die kern van ekonomiese herstel. Die rede waarom Suid-Afrika tans met ʼn krisis van hierdie omvang sit, is omdat die probleem van beurtkrag nooit reg aandag gekry het nie, meen die verslag. Die verslag dui drie foute aan wat Suid-Afrika in 2007 begaan het toe die werklikheid van beurtkrag vir die eerste keer aan die lig gekom het. Eerstens het diegene in beheer van die krisis baie vertroue gestel in swak ontwerpte steenkoolkragsentrales, aangesien die koste van hernubare energie gedaal het. Tweedens is instandhouding in Eskom se verouderende vloot vertraag om meer kapasiteit op korttermyn te skep. Derdens het die regering veels te lank gewag om private investering met erns te betrek.
The state has recovered R5.4bn, including R2.9bn in cash, out of an estimated R57bn worth of funds that were stolen during the state capture era, the presidency said. President Cyril Ramaphosa’s office on Wednesday released a progress report on the government’s move to implement the recommendations of the state capture commission of inquiry which released its final report in 2022. “The SA Revenue Service has also acted against people named in the commission’s report and collected R4.8bn in unpaid taxes in the 2022/23 financial year as a result of evidence presented at the commission” the presidency said. The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) has frozen R14.18bn of assets in state capture related cases.
Die landboubedryf se inkomste het verlede jaar met meer as 11% tot R450 miljard gestyg, volgens die jongste jaarlikse opname deur Statistieke Suid-Afrika. Tussen 2021 en 2022 het die groeikoers van uitgawes egter grootliks dié van die inkomste oorskry, luidens die verslag wat Woensdag uitgereik is. Die totale inkomste het op ’n jaargrondslag met 11,2% gestyg en die totale uitgawes met 11,8%. Volgens Statistieke Suid-Afrika het groot ondernemings 69% oftewel R310 miljard van die totale inkomste in 2022 bygedra, met die 100 grootste ondernemings wat 21% bygedra het. Klein ondernemings se bydrae staan op 17% (R77 miljard) en mediumgrootte ondernemings s’n op 7% (R35 miljard).

First, eight of his calves were stolen, and now 33 cows and 11 calves have been poisoned. “I can’t explain how it feels. It’s not a pretty sight,” says Ockert Goosen. “It’s more than R900 000 in immediate damage. This is without considering that most of the cows were pregnant, and there’s the future loss of income.” Goosen (25) started farming with Bonsmaras and Bonsmara crosses near Tosca two-and-a-half years ago. He also rents cattle land near Bray in the Kgalagadi district in North West. READ MORE

Dis jammer dat Suid Afrika en sy inwoners daagliks geteister word deur BARBARE wat absoluut geen bestaansreg het op aarde nie. Die sogenaamde mense het geen empatie vir mens en dier nie- Afgesien van die feit dat ons mense aangeval en vermoor word deur lafaards en barbare doen die regering niks aan die goed nie. Dis afgryslik om te sien hoe hierdie goed diere op landbouers se plase vergiftig. Dis onmenslik en barbaars. Die meeste van die sogenaamde mense is te sleg om enige werk te verrig en leef daarop om te vernietig te steel en te moor. Dis jammer dat hierdie mooi land van ons waaraan almal so hard gewerk het- die afgelope 30 jaar vernietig is. Maar daar is een ding wat so waar is soos die son wat more weer in die ooste sal opkom en dit - dat wat jy aan ander doen sal 7 keer aan jou gedoen word- alles wat in die donker gebeur sal in die lig kom. Dis jammer dat ons as hardwerkende mense daagliks tussen hierdie barbare moet lewe en werk. Gelukkig is daar baie meer opgevoede Suid Afrikaanse burgers wat in liefde en vrede wil lewe-
.Daar is 11 lande wat China in die verlede van sojabone voorsien het met Suid-Afrika wat nou die 12de land op die lys word. Die grootste verskaffers is Brasilië (60%), Amerika (32%) en Argentinië (4%). Hierdie lande is die grootste uitvoerders van sojabone internasionaal, maar Sacota sê daar is steeds baie ruimte vir ’n kleiner uitvoerder soos Suid-Afrika.

Die wêreld staar stygende voedselpryse in die gesig wat arm en ontwikkelende lande die hardste tref.

Suid Afrika -In plaas daarvan om in verbeterde tegnologie te belê en bedrywighede uit te brei, belê boere in alternatiewe elektrisiteitsopwekking om produksie aan die gang te hou. Maar daar is baie maatskappye wat net verkope jaag en wat met die tyd gaan verdwyn en dan is daar geen na verkope diens nie. Wees versigtig vir manne wat te veel praat en beloftes maak
