The Automotive Business Council, also known as Naamsa, said on Wednesday that new vehicle sales in August reached 41,425 units, a rise of 24.6% from the same month in 2020.

South Africa’s Department of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development (DALRRD) has confirmed it will not compensate poultry producers for losses stemming from culling birds that were at risk of being infected with bird flu earlier in 2021.

The prospect of La Niña means global grain prices may not fall much, as many had expected. Still, this doesn’t change my view about the potential decline in global and domestic grain prices, which I base on the improvement in grain and oilseed production in North America and Europe, where the crop is maturing.

Around 95% of the food we eat grows in the earth. However, more than one-third of the world’s soils are degraded; without rapid action, this figure could rise to 90% by 2050. Soil erosion decreases the water, nutrients and root-space available to plants. Healthy roots enable better use of nutrients and water.

Latest news on the export front is that the unrest induced backlog on movement of citrus fruit at the Durban port is still not cleared with cold rooms at full capacity amid constraints with container availability according to the industry body, the Citrus Growers Association. This is business unusual and hopefully the prolonged in-transit time could be avoided as it has a potential to compromise quality.

Southern Oil Limited (Soill), die vernaamste kanolakoper in Suid-Afrika, se finalepryskontrakte vir kanola op vanjaar was teen R8 389/ton beskikbaar. Volgens mnr.

Die mandaat van die Reserwebank is om die stabiliteit van die finansiële stelsel te verseker en volhoubare ekonomiese groei na te streef. Rentekoerse is een van die instrumente waarmee hy dit probeer bewerkstellig.

Latest news out of Argentina is that the authorities have reportedly extended the limit of 50% on last year’s beef export level imposed earlier in June 2021 by another two months to end of October 2021. The country struggled with inflationary pressures and chose to increase local availability by constraining exports thereby limiting a further rise in domestic prices.

The FAO Food Price Index averaged 127.4 points in August, up 3.1% from July and 32.9% from the same month in 2020.

Die nasionale Rooivleisprodusente-organisasie (RPO) het met dank en waardering kennis geneem van die aanstelling van 'n taakgroep belas met dierebiosekuriteit. Hierdie taakgroep is deur die minister van landbou, grondhervorming en landelike ontwikkeling, Thoko Didiza, daargestel.

Die gebruik van dagga as kos dateer 10 000 jaar terug, maar volgens die ministerie van gesondheid en Sahpra het dit nie voedingswaarde nie, sê mnr. Ricky Stone van CTAA.

Die Wêreldklimaatsorganisasie sê in ‘n verslag weerrampe tref die aarde vier tot vyf keer meer en rig sewe keer meer skade aan as in die 1970s.
