Weeklikse Afrikaanse Landbou Nuusoorsig - Die Afrikaanse Nuus is die afgelope paar dae op AGRI NEWS NET geplaas, saam met nog ander artikels.
Pangolins have historically served as bushmeat in some African countries, with limited use of their scales for traditional cultural practices. Professor Ray Jansen from South Africa’s Tshwane University of Technology and the International Union for Conservation of Nature Species Survival Commission Pangolin Specialist Group.says the cultural use of pangolins in South Africa is considered sustainable. The existential threat stems from the illegal trade that supplies Asian demand for pangolin scales used in traditional Chinese medicine. South Africa already serves as an exit point for large shipments of wildlife commodities such as ivory and abalone. But – as is typical of organised crime investigations – Jansen notes the difficulty in infiltrating the criminal networks responsible for large export operations.
The average income in South Africa is R77 192 per annum, compared to R73 409 in Vietnam, but the median income in Vietnam is R59 563 per annum, compared to R30 718 in South Africa. Why is Vietnam’s average wage lower than South Africa’s yet its median wage is almost double? Because to calculate the median, you line everyone up from poorest to wealthiest and when you get to the person in the middle, you take their wage. In South Africa you need to count an awful lot of unemployed and very poor people before you get to the middle. Our levels of poverty and inequality are much higher than “sweatshop’ Vietnam. Our unemployment rate is 33%, whereas Vietnam’s is 2.3%. Almost no one lives on our R350 per month in Vietnam. Bangladesh has a median wage of R51 646 per annum and an average wage of R55 404 per annum (low levels of inequality). Their wages are rising by an average of 8% per annum, with unemployment down to 4%. In 20 years, who do you think will be better off? South Africa, Vietnam or Bangladesh?
Eskom se kragverkope het die afgelope vyf jaar met gemiddeld 2,5% per jaar gedaal en die skuld daarvoor kan net voor die kragreus se eie deur gelê word. Die landbousektor het op ’n jaargrondslag 11% minder krag by Eskom gekoop. Die nuus is Maandag met die uitreiking van Eskom se finansiële jaarresultate vir die boekjaar tot 31 Maart bekend gemaak. Eskom sê kragverkope aan alle ekonomiese sektore in Suid-Afrika het gedurende 2023-boekjaar met 5% gedaal. Dié redes is grootliks sy eie swak opwekkingsvermoë en die instelling van beurtkrag. Eskom wek boonop ook hoe minder energie op en sy kragsentrales se energiebeskikbaarheidsfaktor (EAF) het verswak tot 56,03% teenoor 2022 se 62,02%. Die totale energie wat Eskom vir die 2023-boekjaar opgewek het, het met 5% gedaal – ’n totaal van 12,2 TWh.
Take accountability and be proud of yourself and your body- Don't lose your dignity- stay away from negative people- you are not a sheep to follow others. Get excited about yourself and your own people - Stand firm - you came into the world alone- you are going out into the world alone. There is nothing as fulfilling as having a healthy Father and Mother and with it a healthy Grandpa and Grandma. This is what adds value to your humanity. Similarly, parents also want to see their children grow old healthy. READ MORE
Almost half of the grains grown around the world are harvested for people to eat directly. People turn wheat flour into bread, steam rice, and make corn tortillas. Grains are a food staple in almost every culture on Earth. A food staple is food that is eaten frequently, often at every meal. Staple foods can be eaten fresh or stored for use all year. Rice, corn, and wheat are the most common staple foods on Earth. READ MORE
The first and most obvious use for fossil fuels such as oil is to make gasoline and diesel for our vehicles. Without those, our civilization would completely collapse because truckers need diesel to get food and supplies to the stores. Not to mention the fact that most people in the developed world need gasoline to get to their jobs. READ MORE
Virtual power plants aren’t new. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that there are already 30 to 60 gigawatts of them in operation today. A gigawatt is 1 billion watts – roughly the output of 2.5 million solar photovoltaic panels or one large nuclear reactor. READ MORE

ONS BOERE- ONS LANDBOUERS van Suid Afrika is die prooi van lafhartige barbare wat geen reg het op bestaan agv van hulle haat en vernietiging nie- Mense wat geen respek het vir enige mens se lewe nie Die mense word opgestook deur militante sogenaamde leiers wat nog nooit iets gebou of ontwikkel het nie. Hulle is net daarop uit om te buit en om te vernietig. Meeste van hulle is uitstekende buite band aanstekers. Inteendeel dis dalk al wat hulle suksesvol kan doen. Die barbare weet dat hulle nie die vermoe het om enigsins 'n bydrae te lewer tot Suid Afrika en sy mense nie- en daarom vernietig hulle liewers alles soos in die res van Afrika. Die oorgrote meerderheid van Suid Afrikaners wil werk, wil bou en in liefde en vrede lewe. Daar is plek vir elkeen onder die son. " Wees wakker - wees paraat - moenie terugstaan nie -Verdedig julleself en pas julle gesinne op.

Damme is sinoniem met water – baie daarvan – en Suid-Afrika het talle damme. ’n Dam se definisie is ’n plek waar water opgegaar word. Dit word gewoonlik oor ’n rivier of stroom gebou om water op te gaar. Ons het damme nodig, want dit gee vir ons water vir ons huise, ondernemings en plase. As gevolg van damme, kan die water by ons uitkom – of ons nou in dorpe, stede of op plase bly. Die meeste damme hou water wat vir besproeiing op boere se landerye gebruik word. Suid-Afrika is ’n land wat as relatief droog beskryf kan word, want ons gemiddelde reënval is sleets ongeveer 464 mm per jaar. Dis baie laer as die wêreldgemiddeld en ons het ook nie ’n groot, standhoudende rivier soos die Nyl in Egipte of die Ganges in Indië wat met die verskaffing van water kan help nie. Die Wes-Kaap kry gewoonlik die meeste van sy reën in die winter, maar die res van die land is in ’n somerreënvalgebied.
In the first half of 2023, over 60% of rhinos poached in South Africa perished in KwaZulu-Natal — about 140 compared with Kruger’s roughly 40 casualties. This continues Kruger’s decreasing poaching trend, which has seen a population plunge from 10,000 animals less than two decades ago to, officially at least, under 3,000 today.
Cabinet in South Africa has noted that the majority of independent poultry and egg producers have not been affected by avian influenza, as several South African farmers work around the clock to curb the outbreak, according to the South African government news agency.
Onion and potato prices stabilise in the last leg of the year. -Cabbage -Prices trends depicted a monthly price increase, despite an increase in volumes supplied. Cabbage prices are expected to continue trading sideways for the next three months as market demand remains restricted. Consumer demand trends will be important in driving price movements for the rest of the year.
Klimaatsverandering hou aansienlike uitdagings in vir landbou, wat oesopbrengste, beskikbaarheid van water en plaagbestuur beïnvloed. Stygende temperature en uiterste weersomstandighede kan landbouproduktiwiteit kniehalter, terwyl veranderende reënpatrone kan lei tot droogtes of vloede, met 'mn nadeluge uitwerrking op oeste en veebestuur.
Afgevaardigdes betrokke by die Wet op Groei en Geleenthede in Afrika, of Agoa, gaan die toekoms van die handelsooreenkoms bespreek na aanleiding van ‘n voorgestelde Amerikaanse wetsontwerp om die lewensduur van die ooreenkoms te verleng.
Die Raad op Verbruikersgoedere het mense versoek om hulle in kennis te stel indien daar ‘n vermoede is dat winkels nagemaakte voedselprodukte verkoop. ‘n Aantal kinders in Gauteng en die Vrystaat is onlangs dood, vermoedelik weens voedselvergiftiging nadat hulle eetgoed by spazawinkels gekoop het.
South Africa’s struggling state power utility reported a 23.9 billion-rand ($1.2 billion) annual loss after subjecting the country to record electricity outages. Eskom began intensifying power cuts in the fourth quarter of last year, with blackouts of up to 12 hours a day.
Voorlopige beramings wys die skade aan wingerde naby Vredendal wat weke aaneen onder water was, tydens ’n kritieke tyd in die groeiseisoen tot R50 miljoen kan beloop. Die wingerde het tydens die vloede reeds begin bot en lote begin vorm.
The University of the Free State (UFS) recently appointed Christo van der Rheede, former chief executive officer of Agri SA, as adjunct professor of the UFS Business School.
Kenyan coffee farmers are to sell their produce directly to one of the world's largest coffee firms, Belgium’s Java Coffee Company (JCC), following an agreement signed by the company and the country’s deputy-president, Rigathi Gachagua, in Rotselaar, Belgium.
Oils extracted from the palms of Indonesia are used in everything from candy bars to soap, lipstick and fuel, and stable supplies of the most used edible oil are essential for keeping global food inflation under control. The arrival of the El Niño weather phenomenon traditionally parches the farmlands of Southeast Asia, reducing output of the tropical oil.
