According to Statistics South Africa, the agricultural sector significantly boosted the economy in 2023, contributing an indirect 2.9% to GDP and driving a 0.1% GDP growth in Q1, despite expectations of a decline. Total agricultural income reached R491.7 billion, a 6.8% annual increase from 2017. Animal farming was the top income contributor, followed by mixed farming and horticulture. Key crops like maize, sugarcane, and potatoes led production, with wine grapes showing the largest planted area and a 21.9% production increase from 2017 to 2023. Apples, pears, and table grapes also saw expanded planted areas. Production is regionally concentrated, with KwaZulu-Natal dominating sugarcane (80% of national output, with some in Mpumalanga) and the Western Cape leading in wine grapes, peaches, apples, canola, pears, table grapes, onions, oats, and wheat.
Die Suid-Afrikaanse regering het die rooivleisbedryfsliggaam (RMIS) se biosekerheidsbeampte, Kmdt. Jan Nel, opdrag gegee om ’n bedrieër te ondersoek wat boere mislei deur te beweer hy kan bek-en-klouseer-entstof teen R80 per dosis verskaf en dat hy dit mag toedien. Dewald Olivier, RMIS se uitvoerende hoof, waarsku boere teen hierdie bedrog, en beklemtoon dat bek-en-klouseer ’n staatsbeheerde siekte is, met entstowwe slegs deur staatsveeartse toegedien en vanaf Botswana se entstof-instituut (BVI) ingevoer. Geen entstof is tans vir private vee-eienaars te koop nie, maar
RMIS het onderhandel vir 500,000 dosisse uit ’n komende BVI-besending van 700,000 dosisse vir private aankoop teen R99 per dosis, insluitend stoorkoste by Onderstepoort Biologiese Produkte.
As America celebrates a bumper crop in 2025, South Africa enters its new season with hope, driven by favorable weather forecasts and strong export demand. However, high input costs and U.S. tariffs pose significant challenges. By leveraging technology, diversifying markets, and fostering collaboration between government, labor, and business, South Africa can navigate these hurdles and sustain its agricultural momentum. Both nations, despite their challenges, are poised to play critical roles in global food security, balancing profitability with sustainability in an increasingly competitive market.
China oorweeg om beperkings op ureumuitvoere na Indië te verslap, wat pryse verlaag. Indië se vraag na ureum bly hoog, met ’n tender vir 1 miljoen ton teen einde Oktober 2025. Ondanks deurlopende aankope, oortref die globale ureumvoorraad die vraag, wat pryse druk. Chinese uitvoere na Indië, met ’n bykomende toewysing van 700,000 ton, verhoog mededinging. In die Midde-Ooste het pryse met 5% gedaal tot in die $460’s, met verdere daling moontlik na $450/t. In Brasilië het pryse met $30/t gedaal tot die hoë $450’s as gevolg van swak vraag en mededinging van goedkoper Chinese en Iranse ureum. Iran beplan om meer as 700,000 ton in September te verkoop, terwyl Indonesië en Egipte sukkel om hoë pryse te handhaaf. Ureumpryse sal waarskynlik in die $400-500 reeks bly, met ’n moontlike toets van $500 teen die einde van 2025. Ammoniumsulfaat- en ammonium nitraatpryse daal ook, terwyl ammoniakpryse kan styg weens beperkte beskikbaarheid.
By the mid-1800s, a different kind of hunter had arrived, scouring the region for ivory, hides, and rhino horn - decimating populations. Soon after, cattle farmers posed another threat. Droughts pushed livestock and wild game into closer contact, leading to outbreaks of disease. In a misguided attempt to protect their herds, the farmers shot thousands of wild animals. READ MORE

Minimale regeringsinmenging in landboumarkte word dikwels as die ideale beleid beskou, aangesien inmenging die doeltreffende toewysing van skaarse hulpbronne of die mark se funksionering (deur vraag en aanbod) kan ontwrig.
