Former Agri SA CEO Christo van der Rheede said the appointment came as a "surprise" and Steenhuisen would have his hands full with his new position. "We've had interesting discussions about agriculture. He knows very little, which is understandable, but he has a key interest," added Van der Rheede, who is now an adjunct professor at the University of the Free State. "Farmers do their own thing; they really just need a conducive environment in which to operate. We need the agriculture minister to advocate for that." Van der Rheede said Steenhuisen would need to work on opening up new markets for the agriculture sector, as it was through foreign exchange that "agriculture becomes profitable". This will include tackling barriers to trade, such as issues at ports.

Dit is duidelik dat ’n meerderheid van Europese burgers radikale veranderinge aan onder meer immigrasiebeleid, energiebeleid, lewenskostes en die beskerming van Europese ekonomiese bedrywe wil sien, terwyl hulle toenemend angstig is oor die oorlog in Oekraïne. Die behoud van die status quo, soos wat Brussel voorstaan, is nie meer aanvaarbaar nie. Meer selfgeldende regerings in ’n groter wordende groep Europese lande gaan waarskynlik oor die volgende maande met groter selfvertroue op verandering aandring. Die afgelope paar dae se gebeure in Europa het dit reeds bevestig.

South Africa's summer grains and oilseed harvest is in full swing nationwide, and some crops are nearly complete. Thus, the crop size estimates we have at hand are unlikely to change much and possibly represent an actual picture of the harvest. For example, this afternoon, the Crop Estimates Committee lifted the 2023/24 summer grains and oilseed harvest by 0.6% from last month to 16.0 million tonnes. Still, this is down 20% year-on-year, reflecting the severe impact of the midsummer drought. The summer grains and oilseed harvest comprises white maize, yellow maize, sunflower seed, soybeans, groundnuts, sorghum and dry beans.

Agriculture is a cornerstone of South Africa's economy, contributing significantly to its gross domestic product (GDP) and providing livelihoods for a substantial portion of the population. According to data from Statistics South Africa, agriculture, forestry, and fishing sectors combined contribute around 2.5% to 3% of GDP directly, but their impact extends far beyond these numbers. The sector serves as a foundation for other industries such as agro-processing, manufacturing, and retail, which rely on agricultural outputs as inputs. This interdependence creates a multiplier effect, amplifying the economic impact of agriculture across the entire economy. South Africa's agricultural sector is a significant contributor to the country's export earnings. Products such as citrus fruits, wine, maize, sugar, and beef are exported to international markets, generating foreign exchange revenues. These earnings contribute to the country's trade balance and foreign exchange reserves, enhancing economic stability and supporting imports of essential goods and services.
