Die kanse bestaan dat goeie reën nog voor die winter kan voorkom, maar dit kan moontlik te laat vir die somergraanoes wees. Die swak La Niña-neigings wat sedert Desember ontwikkel het, blyk nie sterk genoeg te wees om die kanse vir reën in die tweede deel van die somer oor Suider-Afrika te verbeter nie. “Met reën wat dié seisoen baie laat begin het, is dit egter steeds moontlik dat reën nog voor die winter gaan voorkom, maar dit sal veral vir die somergraanoes te laat wees,” sê Johan van den Berg, onafhanklike landbouweerkundige. Reën kan in die komende weke in ’n strook vanaf Angola ooswaarts oor Zambië, die noordelike dele van Zimbabwe en Mosambiek, asook oor groot dele van die Mosambiekkanaal en Madagaskar voorkom.
The broader poultry industry remains in a state of flux, grappling with a perfect storm of challenges. The impact of HPAI is far-reaching and estimated to have cost the industry a staggering R9bn. his is compounded by high feed costs, which have been worsened by a weak rand and the global demand for raw materials. The sector is also faced with logistical issues, electricity shortages and the increasing competition posed by cheap imported poultry, particularly from Argentina. To mitigate these risks and safeguard the future of the industry, the SA Poultry Association (Sapa) last week called on the government to take immediate action.
Dit is nie nodig dat boere en ander grondeienaars nou in sak en as gaan sit nie. Aspekte van die Onteieningswet wek met reg kommer, maar daar is ook dele wat die skaal aansienlik balanseer. Boere en grondeienaars moenie nou onnodig meegesleur en pessimisties gestem word deur die huidige diskoers (veral tussen politieke partye) rondom die “nuwe” Onteieningswet nie. Die onteieningskonsep is so oud soos die berge. Suid-Afrika het nog altyd ’n Onteieningswet gehad – die laaste een so onlangs as in 1975. Dit is inderdaad nodig vir enige staat om te kan onteien wanneer dit nodig en in die belang van sy burgers is. Solank dit ordelik, regverdig en billik geskied, is dit wêreldwyd ’n aanvaarbare konsep. Die wetsontwerp is al sedert 2020 op die tafel. Aansienlike veranderings is aan die oorspronklike weergawe daarvan aangebring as gevolg van die konsultasieproses wat die aanvaarding daarvan deur die parlement voorafgegaan het. Die belangrikste verskille met die 1975-weergawe wat die huidige diskoers dryf, is: Onteiening is nou ook toelaatbaar in “openbare belang” (soos grondhervorming) en nie net meer vir “openbare doeleindes” (soos om vir damme, paaie, ens. voorsiening te maak) nie. Daar is nou die vreemde konsep van “nul-vergoeding” in die wet ingeskryf.
Africa, with its vast reserves of fertile yet unused land, abundant workforce, and water resources, has the potential to become a global leader in food production. However, this potential is constrained by critically low fertilizer use, which continues to increase at a worryingly slow rate. At the same time, food security across the continent is deteriorating. The 2024 UN State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World report highlights that Africa now has the highest rate of food insecurity globally, with 20,4% of the population – about 298,4 million people – being undernourished. According to the African Development Bank, Africa's food and agriculture market could surge from $280 billion a year to $1 trillion by 2030. To achieve this, Mike Nash, Senior Editor: Fertilizers at Argus Media, says the continent must first overcome significant barriers to fertilizer adoption.

The ruinous legacy of last year’s El Niño still stalks the grain-growing areas of southern Africa, which is in the grip of historic levels of hunger. The rains this summer have been late to the party in much of the region and the long-range forecasts are clouded by uncertainty, raising the spectre of more crop failures at a time when bountiful harvests are desperately needed in the wake of the disastrous season in 2024.

Rising sea levels, unpredictable rainfall, and the increasing frequency of natural disasters are placing immense pressure on societies—and on the insurance industry, which often serves as the last line of defence.

The Competition Commission's final report on South Africa's fresh produce market, released on 13 January, reveals concerns about high profit margins on fruits and vegetables by major retailers such as Shoprite Checkers, Pick n Pay, Woolworths, Spar Group, Food Lover’s Market, and Massmart. The report also recommends that retailers display prices per 100g to improve price transparency for consumers.
The credibility of the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS) has come under severe scrutiny amidst revelations of persistent dysfunction and misinformation. For years, the public has been unable to trust critical data, such as inflation figures, crop estimates, financial statistics, and even the prices of food and groceries.

Ethiopian coffee exports to the EU are on the rise, despite the spectrum of the EUDR: it seems that the alerts raised by many about the risk of a collapse of exports from Africa to Europe of coffee and other “colonial” commodities covered by the European Union Deforestation Regulation EUDR), have not (luckily) occurred.

The demand for wool from Chinese buyers remains uncertain early in the year, with trends expected to become clearer after the Chinese New Year on 29 January. Deon Saayman, CEO of Cape Wools, also anticipates more clarity once Australian auctions resume on 14 January.
South Africa has the opportunity to step up as a major agricultural exporter to China, especially as China's imports from the U.S. decline due to trade tariffs. While Central and South America are benefiting from this shift, Africa, particularly South Africa, is lagging behind.
Die Suid-Afrikaanse Instituut vir Rasseverhoudinge sê hy is besig om hofstukke op te stel aangesien hy die Onteieningswet in die hof gaan betwis. Die woordvoerder, Gabriel Crouse sê die wet, wat onlangs onderteken is, maak voorsiening vir onteiening sonder vergoeding in ‘n onbepaalde reeks omstandighede.

While the start of South Africa's 2024-25 crop season was tricky, there remains optimism that farmers likely planted more area than the previous season. The preliminary plantings data released by the Crop Estimates Committee this afternoon shows that South African farmers likely planted 4,45 million hectares of summer grains and oilseeds in the 2024-25 season, up mildly by 0,3% from the previous season.
