The G20 comprises 19 countries, the EU, and the African Union, representing 85% of global GDP, 75% of trade, and two-thirds of the world’s population. The presidency rotates annually, managed by a troika of past, present, and future presidents. South Africa, as the current G20 president, has set four agricultural priorities: enhancing food and nutrition security, empowering youth and women in agrifood systems, fostering innovation and technology transfer, and building climate-resilient food production. South Africa aims to leverage its presidency to support African food security and agricultural productivity. The proposed strategy focuses on four interventions:

You can be forgiven if the current financial markets are making you want a glass of wine. Trouble is, that wine might soon cost more. While the threatened tariffs of 20 percent on all European Union wines and 30 percent on all South African wines lasted less than one day before President Donald J. Trump paused them, tariffs of 10 percent remain in place for almost all wine-exporting nations. READ MORE
In political economy, there is something called "flooding the zone". Roughly explained, this is when a deluge of information takes people's attention away from what should be a priority.In South Africa's agriculture, we are fortunately not under such an attack through the flood of information. Still, we must continuously be vigilant and reflect thoughtfully on risks affecting the sector. READ MORE
Australia's climate-related financial disclosure regime mandates larger companies to report climate impacts across their value chains, aiming to enhance transparency and risk management. In agriculture, only very large operations face direct reporting, but indirect effects are significant since farm activities are a major source of climate impact in food value chains. READ MORE
South Africa, the only African country that is a member of the G20, holds the presidency of the grouping until the end of November 2025. During this time, it could help drive the African continent’s food security agenda. The G20 is made up of 19 member countries plus the European Union and the African Union. Its members account for 85% of global GDP, 75% of international trade, and two-thirds of the world’s population. READ MORE

Farming isn’t your typical 9-to-5 gig. It’s a lifestyle that demands early mornings, late nights, and plenty of time operating machinery or walking the land. That’s where Audiocast shine. They’re hands-free, portable, and don’t care if you’re covered in dirt or steering through a muddy field. Unlike a book or a video, a Audiocast doesn’t ask you to stop what you’re doing—it joins you in the cab, the shed, or wherever the day takes you. And farmers are listening. Surveys suggest that a significant chunk of the agricultural community—some estimates say over a third—tune into ag-related podcasts regularly. Whether it’s catching up on market trends, learning about the latest in soil health, or just hearing a good story from another grower, these audio shows have become a go-to resource.
15 Best South Africa News Podcasts
AGRI NEWS NET on NUMBER 7 for the month of March 2025
The numbers tell the story: Audiocast listenership is climbing, and agriculture is no exception. By some estimates, over 100 million people in the U.S. alone are tuning into podcasts, with farmers and ranchers making up a dedicated slice of that pie. Successful ag-focused shows are racking up thousands of downloads per episode, and some are even attracting sponsors eager to reach this engaged audience.
US President Donald Trump’s recent tariffs and their subsequent partial rollback triggered a global stock market rout, impacting South Africa’s rand and JSE All Share Index.
Wandile Sihlobo, hoofekonoom van Agbiz, beklemtoon dat Suid-Afrika se landboukernkwessies, veral dieregesondheid, nie deur politieke en internasionale handelsgeraas, soos VSA-invoerheffings, oorskadu mag word nie. Ondanks vordering teen siektes soos voëlgriep, Afrika-varkpes en bek-en-klouseer, bly uitbrake in KwaZulu-Natal en die Oos-Kaap ’n waarskuwing vir voortdurende waaksaamheid.
South Africa, heavily reliant on state-owned Eskom for electricity, faced record outages in 2023 due to mismanagement and underinvestment. This prompted the government to allow private companies to build power plants of any size for self-use or grid sales, and now to license electricity traders, creating a market-oriented pricing structure.
Die hoë watervlakke in die Benede-Oranjerivier is vererger deur die departement van water en sanitasie se besluit om water uit die Vanderkloofdam vir Eskom se kragopwekking vry te laat, ten spyte van boere se versoeke om dit uit te stel totdat vloedwater uit die Vaalrivier verby is.
The G20 comprises 19 countries, the EU, and the African Union, representing 85% of global GDP, 75% of trade, and two-thirds of the world’s population. The presidency rotates annually, managed by a troika of past, present, and future presidents.
South Africa's trade policy must prioritize strengthening relations and expanding export opportunities, particularly in agriculture. This sector heavily relies on exports, benefiting from trade agreements negotiated by South African authorities. The Southern African Customs Union (SACU), including Botswana, Namibia, Lesotho, and Eswatini, requires attention.
The Jozini Smallholder Farmer Programme, launched by the Department of Agriculture (DOA), Unilever South Africa, and the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (DARD), aims to promote sustainable agriculture, enhance livelihoods, and empower 100 smallholder farmers in Jozini, KwaZulu-Natal.
Die nasionale oesskattingskomitee se tweede someroesskatting vir 2025-’26, einde Maart bekendgemaak, toon ’n 16% groter oes as die vorige jaar, met ’n geraamde 18 miljoen ton. As weer gunstig bly, kan die derde skatting verder styg.
Ondanks droogte en uitdagings in die Vrystaat se landbou, is vyf finaliste vir die 2025 Vrystaat Landbou Jongboer van die Jaar-kompetisie aangekondig tydens die Jongboer-konferensie in Bloemfontein op 10 April. Die finaliste, beoordeel op 26 en 27 Februarie deur ’n kundige paneel.
