After an unparalleled contraction in 2020, sub-Saharan Africa is set to grow by 3.7 percent in 2021 and 3.8 percent in 2022. The recovery is supported by rising commodity prices, improving global trade and financial conditions. But this welcomed rebound is relatively modest by global standards, leading to a widening income disparity with developed economies.
Agriculture is one of the major land uses in South Africa. However, the actions of producers can have a great impact on the associated natural environment.
Suid-Afrika stuur af op ’n derde goeie somerseisoen en ons span sien dit waar ons ry. Te oordeel na voornemens om te plant, stuur Suid-Afrika af op ’n derde goeie somerseisoen. Selfs ’n skerp styging in produksiekoste en probleme om finansiering te bekom kan klaarblyklik nie boere se geesdrif om te plant demp nie.
Die wêreldboere-organisasie (WFO) wil die boodskap duidelik tuisbring by die klimaatberaad COP26 dat daar nie ’n enkele, oorkoepelende oplossing vir die landbousektor is om sy bydrae te lewer in die versagting van en aanpassing by klimaatsverandering nie.
Robots! Whether you love them or fear them, you can't deny they are pretty useful. One such robot is the autonomous weeder by Carbon Robotics.

Almost half the adult population (49.2%) fall below a poverty line set at R1,183 per month. And far from reducing inequality, government policies such as BEE have created a small, wealthy black elite and a very large, poor, jobless and mostly black underclass, with the result that inequality within the black population group now outstrips that between it and any other population group.
Agriculture is changing all over the world and a new way of thinking will have to take place very quickly. It is more likely that agricultural technology and the agricultural economy will develop in such a way that land will not necessarily serve as collateral for production. The calculation of risk will be traded on perpetual production rather than on assets and land
Economist Mike Schüssler warns that South Africa cannot afford to have its economic arteries blocked, while Transport Minister Fikile Mbalula says government is mindful of the impact and is trying to address the issue
Lions, rhinos and cheetahs are among the wild species at risk of irreversible “genetic pollution” from breeding experiments, scientists have warned.South African game farmers have increasingly been breeding novel trophy animals, including some freakishly-coloured varieties such as the black impala, golden wildebeest or pure-white springboks.
