Former minister of agriculture Thoko Didiza has called out her successor, John Steenhuisen, for statements he made at the weekend in relation to “exposing” misconduct in the department. Didiza said the impropriety Steenhuisen allegedly “uncovered” was dealt with during her time in the department and referred to the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) for investigation by the state-owned animal vaccine manufacturing entity involved. She said it was inappropriate for Steenhuisen to make definitive statements while enforcement agencies were conducting investigations, creating an impression that nothing was done to address the challenges by the previous administration. Didiza urged Steenhuisen to be circumspect about the matters he communicated to the media “as these will have unintended and disastrous consequences for the department and its entities”.
Vrystaat Landbou (VL) het met Jabu Mbalula, die Vrystaatse LUR vir gemeenskapsveiligheid, en Elzabe Rockman, Vrystaatse LUR vir landbou, landelike ontwikkeling en omgewingsake, vergader in die hoop op beter samewerking om verhoogde misdaad en veiligheidsprobleme wat grensgemeenskappe en grensboere aan die Lesotho-grens teister, doeltreffend te bekamp. Francois Wilken, president van VL, sê die fokus is onder meer op hoëmisdaadgebiede wat al jare lank as onwettige deurgangsroetes na Lesotho deur misdadigers uitgebuit word. Probleme sluit in veediefstal, oorgrensbeweiding en Basotho-mense en hul diere – diere wat nie gebrandmerk is nie – wat in baie grensdorpe se meentgronde opgemerk word. Mbalula beplan om die grensgebiede binnekort te besoek om gesprekke met boerderygemeenskappe op al die grensdorpe te voer. “Daadwerklike veiligheidsaspekte is tydens die vergadering uitgelig, wat oorgedra gaan word na die polisie se landelike veiligheidsberaad wat Woensdag en Donderdag in die Vrystaat gehou word,” sê Wilken. Jakkals le Roux, voorsitter van VL se landelike veiligheidskomitee, sê daar was eenstemmigheid onder alle rolspelers dat daar groter en beter samewerking moet wees, met meer stappe om grensveiligheid te verbeter
Business confidence in the agricultural sector in South Africa in the second quarter of 2024 was at its lowest level since 2009, the year of the global financial crisis. As one of the largest contributors to South Africa’s GDP, the sector is vital to the sustainability of the economy, society, and environment, and a significant contributor to the upliftment of rural communities across the country. It is therefore of great concern that the current state of the sector is not as promising as one would hope. Agricultural sector stakeholders have an important role to play in ensuring agricultural engine failure does not ensue.
Volgens ontleders by EastFruit, ʼn inligtingsplatform oor groente- en vrugtemarkte in Oos-Europa en Sentraal-Asië, verhoog Kanada sy uitvoer van vars groente en vrugte elke jaar met 9,2%. Daarbenewens styg die inkomste van Kanadese uitvoerders jaarliks met ʼn indrukwekkende $305 miljoen (meer as R5,4 miljard). Die jaarlikse toename is rofweg gelykstaande aan Oekraïne se algehele uitvoer van vrugte en groente voordat dié land twee jaar gelede deur Russiese magte ingeval is. “Intussen is die algehele volume van Kanadese vrugte- en groente-uitvoere 12 keer groter as dié van Oekraïne, wat einde verlede jaar $3,9 miljard (meer as R69 miljard) vir die land ingebring het. “Hierdie syfer is ongeveer 4,5 keer meer as die vrugte- en groente-uitvoer uit Oesbekistan.”

Most trophies are imported into Europe from countries with abundant and stable populations of the species being hunted, including Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. This is why sustainably manage trophy hunting is recognised as a conservation measure by international agreements and organisations. Nevertheless, some governments, like the UK’s new Labour government, intend to ban trophies imports irrespective of whether hunting contributes to conservation and local livelihoods. READ MORE
One of the innovations the modern world offers is variable rate technology (VRT), also known as variable rate application method. VRT uses data-driven tools like sensors, GPS, and maps to optimize the use of seeds, fertilizers, and irrigation. This allows farmers to tailor their approach to each part of their fields, maximizing yield and reducing waste. READ MORE

Voorspellings vir goeie reënval oor die somerreëngebied lyk eers moontlik vanaf die laaste deel van Oktober, en boere wat vroeë mielie-aanplantings oorweeg, moet baie versigtig beplan.

Dit is die grootste skenking wat ek nog in al my jare van liefdadigheid ontvang het van een maatskappy af.” ’n Konvooi van nege vragmotors het vanoggend (27/8) vanaf Winterstorm Kuilvoer op Lichtenburg, Noordwes, weggetrek om môre (28/8) bystand aan sowat 50 boere in die Kenhardt en Brandvleidistrik in die Noord-Kaap te bied.
