Aanduidings is dat die petrolprys en dieselprys met meer as R1 gaan styg in Februarie 2022- saam met dit het die Reserwebank hulle eeu oue tradisie van rentekoers verhogings voortgesit en die rentekoers met 25 basispunte verhoog. Die regering met sy duur en gulsige brandsof beleid is die grootse drywer van ons sogenaamde inflasie. Die rentekoersbeleid van die Reserwebank en die ander sentrale banke in die wêreld is die enkele grootste dwaling in die ekonomiese wetenskap waarvoor daar geen bewyse bestaan nie- Die aansprake van die Bank dat sy rentekoersbeleid die inflasiekoers binne sy inflasieteikens van 3% to 6% kan beheer is nie waar nie en nog minder korrek. Sy beleid kan nog minder die waarde van die geldeenheid beskerm of ekonomiese groei stimuleer nie. Inflasiekoers word deur al die plaaslike en internasionale politieke en ekonomiese faktore bepaal wat ‘n invloed op die vraag en aanbod van goedere en dienste uitoefen, asook die waarde van die geldeenheid, respektiewelik. Ekonomiese groei word deur die vraag- en aanbodkant van die ekonomie geskep wat elke kwartaal deur Statistiek SA bewys word wat deur die winsmotief van die privaatsektor gedryf word.
Ons moet ophou om aan al die ekonome se lippe te hang wat so diensgewys saam met die Reserwebank praat en hulle beleid bevorder. Ons landbouers dra alreeds swaar aan gulsige insetverskaffers se hoe pryse vir landbou insetkoste asook ander middele .Die hoër koste om skuld te delg sal gevolglik winsmarges in die landbousektor wegvreet. Saam met stygende insetkoste kan dit vir boere probleme skep op die lang duur.
Intussen is die ANC regering besig om stadig maar seker ons landbouers ook te druk om deel van die BEE sage te word. Die B-BBEE-sertifikate wat aan die PPECB verskaf moet word, sal gebruik word om die vlak van voldoening van die sektor as geheel te bepaal en dat die PPECB nie die vlak van voldoening van individuele entiteite sal evalueer nie. Verder is dit gekommunikeer dat die PPECB nie tans vereis dat sy kliënte B-BBEE geregistreer is of dat hulle ’n spesifieke B-BBEE-gradering behaal nie. Met bewoording soos ‘tans’, ‘in hierdie stadium’, ens. wys dit duidelik dat die gebruik van B-BBEE-sertifikate in die toekoms ’n invloed gaan hê ,op ons landbouers se uitvoere. Lees gerus TLU se persvrystelling. Hierdie en nog ander maatreels gaan Suid Afrika se voedelsekeruteit onder geweldige druk plaas.

Meganisering het die potensiaal om ongeskoolde arbeid te vervang as gevolg van die herhalende aard daarvan. Dit is maar een van die bevindings van Westley Ferguson van Agri Enterprises terwyl hy navorsing gedoen het oor gemeganiseerde boerdery en die potensiële impak wat dit op arbeidsmarkte kan hê.
The plants that nourish us won't disappear entirely. But they may have to move to higher and cooler latitudes, or farther up a mountainside. Some places may find it harder to grow anything at all, because there's not enough water. Here are five foods, and food-growing places, that will see the impact.
Die Namibiese Pluimvee-vereniging het gereageer op die aankondiging van die direktoraat van veeartseny in die Namibiese landbouministerie wat die hoogs aansteeklike H5N1 voëlgriep onder seevoëls langs die kus by Walvisbaai en Swakopmund bevestig het.
Volgens die Internasionale Monetêre Fonds, IMF, sal sub-Sahara Afrika se ekonomie met 3,7 persent in 2021 groei en 3,8 persent in 2022. In vergelyking met 2020 is dit verwelkomend, maar dit is steeds die stadigste herstel in vergelyking met ander streke. Dié streek het die wêreld se laagste ingeënte bevolking en kritieke ekostelsels, maar het die mees belowende energiepotensiaal.

Throughout most of the post-unification period, specifically from 1913, the sustained and substantial government support to agriculture was biased towards white (mainly small-scale and impoverished) farmers to commercialize them. Lacking a proportional amount of public support, black farmers suffered as a consequence.

Soil is a living and life-giving natural resource. As world population and food production demands rise, keeping our soil healthy and productive is of paramount importance.

The increasing frequency of heatwaves places additional stress on crops and affects the amount of sugar in grapes.

When we consider the current operational status of the Cape Town (CT) port, it is clear that the industry, and country, are losing millions of Rands on a daily basis due to inefficiencies resulting in berthing delays.
