Weeklikse Afrikaanse Landbou Nuusoorsig - Die Afrikaanse Nuus is die afgelope paar dae op AGRI NEWS NET geplaas, saam met nog ander artikels. 

After slowing for six consecutive months, South Africa's consumer food inflation quickened to 8,8% in October 2023, from 8,0% in the previous month. The product prices underpinning this increase were mainly milk, eggs and cheese; fruit; and vegetables. For all these products, the recent price rises will likely be a temporary blip. They are a reaction to brief supply constraints in the past few months. The avian influenza was the main issue behind the eggs supply constraints, which remain a challenge although not as acute as we saw in September and October. Regarding the vegetables, potatoes were mainly the driver of the prices in the basket as the harvest was limited following quality challenges caused by irrigation disruptions in some fields due to load-shedding in much of the year's first half.

Die El Niño-stelsel ry tans wipplank, wat goeie nuus vir reën op mediumtermyn kan wees, maar die Indiese Oseaan het tans ’n groot invloed op die ongunstige reëntoestande. Daar is nog onsekerheid oor wanneer El Niño ’n hoogtepunt gaan bereik en navorsers se voorspellings hieroor verskil tans, sê Johan van den Berg, onafhanklike landbouweerkundige. “Die ontwikkeling van die El Niño-stelsel vind plaas in fases of periodes wat vinniger en stadiger kan wees. Dit kan dikwels verwarrrend wees om na die korttermynbewegings te kyk.”“Die Indiese Oseaan speel tans ’n baie groot rol om ongunstige reëntoestande oor Suider-Afrika te veroorsaak, met die meeste tropiese vog wat ooswaarts uit Sentraal-Afrika vloei. Omdat dit nie vinnig gaan verander nie, kan dit steeds reëntoestande demp in die volgende maand of twee.

President Cyril Ramaphosa unveiled SA’s R1.5-trillion Just Energy Transition Investment Plan at the COP27 climate conference in 2022. It was developed to set out the actions and platforms needed to ensure the transformation of the energy sector and the establishment of electric vehicle and green hydrogen industries to the benefit of affected communities. The plan highlights how SA’s fiscal constraints and Eskom’s bailout conditions are hindering access to finance that has been pledged by financial institutions to support, among other things, the decommissioning of coal-fired power stations. In addition, the government’s plan to delay the decommissioning of coal plants that will reach the end of their life in the next five years puts at risk highly concessional financing that has been offered to SA specifically for decommissioning. 

International trade is at the heart of SA’s agricultural success. For this reason any disruptive legislative and logistical constraints to exports constrain the sector’s growth and are cause for concern. Equally, the differences in the interpretation of export-related legislation by industry leaders versus regulators could have adverse effects on the sector or dent sentiment. Maize, wine, grapes, citrus, berries, nuts, apples and pears, sugar, avocados and wool were some of the top exportable products in 2022, spread across various key markets. Africa remained a leading market, accounting for 37% of SA’s agricultural exports in 2022. Asia was the second largest, accounting for 27% of exports, followed by the EU at 19%. The Americas was the fourth-largest region, accounting for 7%, and the remaining 10% went to the rest of the world. The UK was one of the leading markets within the “rest of the world” category. 

Landbou is ‘n ekonomiese proses waar kundigheid, maar veral die aanvaarding van verantwoordelikheid vir wat dit verg om te kan boer, die grondslag lê vir sukses al dan nie.  Suid-Afrika se landbou is opgebou deur familieboerderye waar sukses oor tyd heen veroorsaak het dat boerderye gegroei het tot waar dit vandag staan.  Dit is diegene wat steeds toesien dat daar kos op die tafels is van verbruikers.  Dit is derhalwe in landsbelang dat elke moontlike hekkie in die pad van ons land se produsente uit die weg geruim behoort te word en dat daar op geen wyse voorsiening gemaak word om belemmerende beleide wat beperkend inspeel op geleenthede enigsins te ondersteun nie.

The challenge of feeding the world is immense, given the unrelenting effects of climate change, from droughts and floods, both of which have increased in frequency and intensity in Africa. To secure global food supplies by 2050 when the world’s population will reach 9.6 billion, Africa must become part of the solution. READ MORE 

When structuring growth-enhancing reforms, there is value in crafting a unifying overarching vision where each role-player has a sense of ownership, responsibility, and clarity about the possibilities of success. When such a vision is implemented, each party should continuously communicate success and glitches along the way. READ MORE
