Ons kragnetwerk het baie probleme- enonsn moet maar net duimvas hou dat die gemors reggemaak kan word.  Die eenhede breek dit een na die ander en mens kan nie anders as om te dink dat daar moontlik sabotasie agter alles is nie. 

Die tyd het aangebreek vir alle Suid-Afrikaners om standpunt in te neem teen kortsigtige en uiters onverantwoordelike optrede deur die regering en seker te maak jy staan aan die regte kant van die geskiedenis.Die Onteieningswet met ’n klousule wat voorsiening maak vir onteiening sonder vergoeding gaan aan die Parlement voorgelê word en die voorsitter van die parlementêre portefeuljekomitee oor openbare werke en infrastruktuur het gesê geen verdere voorleggings gaan oorweeg word nie. Dit is verbysterend dat met die land se ekonomiese insinking, die werkloosheid en armoede daar steeds rolspelers is wat besluite neem wat beleggersvertroue afbreek en wat alles in hul vermoë doen om ons ekonomie nie tot by groei uit te bring nie. Die land se geskiedenis sal dié mense oordeel,” sê mnr. Bennie van Zyl, Hoofbestuurder van TLU SA.

What is inflation? The answer seems obvious: when things get more expensive, that’s inflation, and it’s bad. But an alternative view is Milton Friedman’s. In a talk in 1963, the hugely influential economist defined inflation as “a steady and sustained rise in prices” and added that “inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon”.Please use the sharing tools found via the share button at the top or side of articles. The distinction matters. Consider two scenarios that might illuminate it. In both of them, consumer prices have increased by 10 per cent over the past year. In Inflation World, there’s too much money around. Everything is getting more expensive at much the same rate, including labour. With your wages rising at the same rate as prices, the situation is disorienting and slightly inconvenient, but it’s not a crisis. The main risk is that inflation becomes self-perpetuating, and the main responsibility for solving the problem lies with the central bank.

Die regering en sy meelopers is blykbaar absoluut ingestel op korrupsie en het dit al deur die jare vervolmaak. Daar vind nog elke dag korrupie plaas- 

Wandile Sihlobo, chief economist of the Agricultural Business Chamber of SA, notes that the second quarter’s overall decline in agriculture of  7.7%, which followed a 2.4% fall in the first quarter, was unsurprising. He highlights the challenges faced by various subsectors, including livestock, which continues to suffer from foot-and-mouth disease outbreaks and rising feed costs. What’s more, some field crop harvests aren’t as robust as during the 2020/2021 season due to heavy rains at the start of the season.  The contribution of agriculture to the economy has grown over time. Over the past five years it has risen from 2.7% to 3.2% of GDP, and it contributes 6% of all jobs. Agriculture continues to represent an important opportunity for job creation. But it will require specific policy and other interventions to unlock this potential.

Die Jagersfontein-ramp van 2022, word sedert Sondag vanuit alle oorde vergelyk met die destyde Merriespruit-ramp van 1994. Laat in die middag van 22 Februarie het dit swaar gereën, die damwal het as gevolg daarvan ingegee e nook die dorp met slik oorstroom. 17 mense is dood, terwyl talle dakloos gelaat is. Bykans 400 reddingswerkers, polisiebeamptes en soldate is ingespan om na oorlewendes te soek en om ander hulp aan te bied. Nog ‘n reuse tragedie wat die land getref het, is die Laingsburg-vloed van 25 Januarie 1981. Minstens 100 mense is dood, waarvan 72 se liggame nooit gevind is nie. 

Russia is ready to give hundreds of thousands of tons of fertilizers to developing countries free of charge, President Vladimir Putin said. “In addition, the day before yesterday I also informed [UN Secretary General] Mr. Guterres about 300,000 tons of Russian fertilizers at seaports of the European Union. We are ready to hand them over to developing countries free of charge,” Putin said. The Russian president also said that the decision of the European Union to lift sanctions from fertilizers was related only to Europe.  “It turns out that it is only them who can purchase our fertilizers. What about the developing and impoverished countries in the world?” he said.

At the end of a successful inaugural Mzansi Young Farmers Indaba in Sandton, Team Food For Mzansi asked around for the most inspirational words from speakers and panellists. These are just a handful of the favourites.“It indeed gives hope that South Africa’s food security is in good hands. [Older] farmers are worrying about what will happen in South Africa if there’s no new generation. But what we see today, is you! The future of the agricultural sector of South Africa, Africa and globally. Sometimes when we’re in our little corners, we may wonder, ‘Does what I do, actually shift the needle in the agricultural economy?’ I want to assure you today, that it does.”

There will always be hardship and challenges, and really, there are endless reasons for you to be stressed out in agriculture. But you are on Earth for a reason, and the moment you know that purpose, it determines your success, your passion, and where you are going to spend your energy and time. And that gives you the energy to tackle hardships while looking at the positive side.” Corné Liebenberg is the marketing director at Laeveld Agrochem.

Titelaktes, landbouproduksie en voedselsekerheid loop die risiko om deur die voorgestelde wet op grondonteiening geskaad te word. Die grondonteieningwetsontwerp is in die finale fases om wet te word, hoewel dit in ’n verrassende wending vandeesweek nog ’n tydjie by die portefeuljekomitee oor openbare werke en infrastruktuur bly vashaak. Die komitee moes op Woensdag 14 September die verslag oor wetsontwerp aanvaar, maar dié proses is uitgestel tot eerskomende Dinsdag.
