The South African poultry industry is seeking urgent clarification from Trade, Industry and Competition Minister Ebrahim Tau regarding a vague statement made on July 29, 2025, about a U.S. trade deal, which referenced “simplifying” U.S. poultry exports under the 2016 tariff rate quota to unlock $91 million in trade. The industry, concerned about the lack of consultation, notes that no formal discussions occurred despite a May 16, 2025, meeting where it requested stakeholder engagement and the revocation of the U.S. poultry import quota (increased from 65,000 to 72,000 tonnes), which allows tariff-free imports despite anti-dumping concerns.
Die Suid-Afrikaanse regering, onder pres. Cyril Ramaphosa, werk aan hulpmaatreëls vir maatskappye, produsente en werkers wat geraak word deur Amerika se 30%-invoertarief op Suid-Afrikaanse produkte. Besonderhede sal later bekendgemaak word. Ramaphosa is bekommerd oor die tariewe, en die departement van handel, nywerheid en mededinging is in gesprek met Amerika oor die raamwerkooreenkoms. South Africa Wines noem die situasie onseker, maar is bereid om met die regering saam te werk. Die departement beplan ’n uitvoerhulpdiens. Volgens Amerika se uitvoerende bevel is goedere wat voor 5 Oktober 2025 ingevoer word, vrygestel van die tarief. Uitsonderings sluit produkte soos koper, farmaseutiese produkte en energie in.
The South African Reserve Bank’s (SARB) interest rate decision on July 31, 2025, is met with cautious optimism in the agricultural sector due to the looming 30% U.S. tariff on South African exports, effective August 7, 2025, and ongoing biosecurity challenges like foot and mouth disease (FMD). Despite a positive agricultural outlook, these issues dampen sector confidence. The recent rate cut to 7% (from 7.5%) reduces debt servicing costs, providing relief after the 2024 drought-induced contraction, which eroded profit margins amid a 67% rise in agricultural debt over the past decade (5.8% CAGR).
Die Noordwes departement van landbou en landelike ontwikkeling het ’n bedrag van R36,856 miljoen toegeken aan die Rooivleisbedryfontwikkelings- en Bevorderingsprogram. Dié program vorm deel van die departement se strategie om deelname te verbreed, plaaslike waarde toe te voeg en landelike ekonomieë te stimuleer, met betekenisvolle bydraes tot sowel die provinsiale as nasionale BBP. Dit is dus ’n strategiese ingryping om die provinsie as sleuteldeelnemer in Suid-Afrika se rooivleisekonomie te herposisioneer.
Woensdag, 23 Julie 2025, het LUR Madoda Sambatha tydens sy beleids- en begrotingstoespraak wat in die provinsiale wetgewer aangekondig is, sal 7 242 produsente regstreeks bevoordeel. Dit sluit 4 728 mans, 2 219 vroue, 252 jongmense en 43 persone met gestremdhede in. Ondersteuning behels gestruktureerde produksiehulpmiddele, toegang tot waardekettings en markintegrasie.
Under the collaborative project among University of the Witwatersrand, nuclear energy officials and conservationists, five rhinos were injected Thursday in what the university hopes will be the mass injection of the declining rhino population. Last year, about 20 rhinos at a sanctuary were injected with isotopes as part of initial trials that paved the way for Thursday's launch. The radioactive isotopes even at low levels can be recognized by radiation detectors at airports and borders, which can lead to the arrest of poachers and traffickers. READ MORE
Trusts have long been a cornerstone of estate planning — and for good reason. When properly structured, a trust can safeguard wealth, reduce risk, and support generational continuity. But here’s the uncomfortable truth: not all trusts are created equal. In fact, most aren't even valid. READ MORE
While a lot of progress has been made on sustainable agriculture, there is much work yet to be done to meet rising food and water demands in a resource finite world – in addition to improving the lives of small-scale farmers. Farmer-led irrigationoffers opportunities for inclusive, sustainable, and positive change. However, urgent international commitment to and investments in farmer-led irrigation are required to tackle the water and food challenges of our time. READ MORE
In South Africa, most of the arable land was taken from African people by colonial settlers. Ever since apartheid ended in 1994, people who were dispossessed of their land have been trying to get it back. When land is given back to an entire community, things can become complicated. For example, some people might want to divide it up into individual plots; others might want to use the land communally. Or individuals in positions of power might exploit their influence to secure personal gains. READ MORE

CRA MEDIA - Actions speak louder than words. So, focus on winning through your actions rather than trying to win an argument.You need to think long-term if you want to maintain power. Consider all the possible outcomes of your actions and plan accordingly. Don’t accept things that people give to you for free. People will think they have power over you if you do. You won’t be able to exert your authority as easily.

Besonderhede sal later bekendgemaak word. Ramaphosa is bekommerd oor die tariewe, en die departement van handel, nywerheid en mededinging is in gesprek met Amerika oor die raamwerkooreenkoms.
The Free Market Foundation (FMF) and Solidarity Research Institute’s report, The Costs of BEE Compliance, estimates that black economic empowerment (BEE) policies have cost South Africa over R5 trillion in lost economic activity over nearly two decades, reducing annual GDP growth by 3%.
Die wêreld verwag in 2025 ’n rekordmielie-oes van 1,264 miljard ton, aangedryf deur rekordoeste in die VSA (399 miljoen ton), China (295 miljoen ton) en Brasilië (131 miljoen ton), wat twee derdes van globale produksie uitmaak. Ondanks gunstige oestoestande bly wêreldvoorraad laag op 21,3% van verbruik, ’n 13-jaar-laagtepunt, weens rekordverbruik van 1,276 miljard ton.
Agricultural economist Wandile Sihlobo emphasizes the need for South Africa’s private sector to play a larger role in promoting agricultural exports and producing animal vaccines to drive long-term growth in the sector.
Solidariteit sê ʼn handelsooreenkoms tussen Suid-Afrika en Amerika is steeds moontlik, ondanks die tarief van 30-persent wat van vandag geld op Suid-Afrikaanse uitvoere na Amerika. Die Departement van Handel, Nywerheid en Mededinging het ʼn stel maatreëls aangekondig na aanleiding van die tariefverhoging, onder meer ʼn uitvoerondersteuningskantoor.
The Western Cape’s wine industry faces uncertainty as the U.S. threatens to impose a 30% tariff on South African exports, effective August 1, 2025, with no response from U.S. trade delegates to South Africa’s proposed accommodations as of July 31. Trade Minister Parks Tau was expected to address the issue alongside a Transformation Fund statement, but negotiations remain unresolved.
Hoewel die Reserwebank se rentekoersbesluit op 31 Julie deur die landbousektor as welkome verligting beskou word, is die reaksie oorwegend versigtig weens kommerwekkende handelsvooruitsigte en voortdurende biosekerheidsuitdagings.
Hoewel die grootte van die mielieoes reeds in week 12 die 2023-’24-seisoen oorskry het, bly kommer oor swak gehalte ’n knelpunt vir die mark.
The South African Department of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development (DALRRD) has released draft regulations to govern the live export of animals by sea, sparking renewed debate over animal welfare.
Die Suid-Afrikaanse Reserwebank het die terugkoopkoers van môre af tot sewe-persent verlaag, net ure voor Amerikaanse president Donald Trump se verwagte aankondiging van ‘n tarief van 30-persent op Suid-Afrikaanse goedere.
A report by the Free Market Foundation (FMF) and Solidarity Research Institute (SRI), titled “The Costs of BEE Compliance,” estimates that black economic empowerment (BEE) policies cost South Africa R1.15 trillion annually in lost tax revenue due to reduced economic growth.

The August 2025 Asia-Pacific Freight Market Report by Taiwan’s Dimerco highlights global shipping disruptions impacting African imports, particularly from Asia. New U.S. tariffs starting August 1 on goods from 25 countries, mostly in Asia, are increasing costs and prompting changes in transport strategies, with a surge in July exports causing container shortages, canceled sailings, and fluctuating freight rates.
Die Suid-Afrikaanse graanbedryf, veral witmielieboere, staan voor uitdagings weens hoë diskonto’s op graad 2- en graad 3-witmielies, veroorsaak deur ongunstige weer en ’n swak mark.
