The Heartbeat of Farming and Agri News.- Updated every day of of the week- 365 days of the year - 

’n Ontleding van internasionale weergebeure die afgelope paar weke bied ’n interessante blik op die ontwikkeling van ’n moontlike La Niña-stelsel of neutrale toestande dié somer. Neutrale toestande kom voor wanneer die see-oppervlaktemperature van die Niño-gebiede in die Stille Oseaan nie na La Niña óf El Niño neig nie.  Die afgelope twee dekades was die gevolg van klimaatsverandering tydens La Niña- en neutrale seisoene dat die reënval meer gekonsentreerd is van November tot Februarie, ten koste van winter- en lentereën. “Die gevolge van klimaatsverandering kan dus vanjaar help om reën in die belangriker tye van die seisoen te laat voorkom.”  

South Africa is the only African country in the top 40 global agricultural exporters, with an export value of US$13,2 billion in 2023 and ranked the 32nd largest agricultural exporter in the world, according to data from Trade Map. But accessibility to these markets is not cast in stone. In an increasingly fragmented world and various recent incidents of non-tariff import barriers, paying particular attention to nurturing the existing markets and opening new ones will be vital.

Terwyl leiers van Europese Unie-lidlande verlede week in Brussel vergader het om oor die oorlog in Oekraïne en die immigrantekrisis in Europa te praat, is data bekend gemaak oor ’n ander krisis wat dié kontinent in die gesig staar, naamlik ’n moontlike bevolkingsinploffing in baie Europese lande. Die Griekse eerste minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, het die demografiese ineenstorting wat Griekeland tans in die gesig staar, as ’n eksistensiële uitdaging vir sy land beskryf. Daar word verwag dat Griekeland se bevolking teen 2070 met 25% sal krimp en dat meer as die helfte van die bevolking ouer as die aftree-ouderdom sal wees. Verlede jaar is net meer as 70 000 babas in Griekeland gebore – die minste in meer as ’n eeu.

Transport minister Barbara Creecy has patted herself on the back, saying since her appointment into the crucial portfolio, she has begun several processes to ensure the department’s entities fulfil their core mandates and are able to account for their expenditure.  Transnet’s current recovery plan aims to achieve the movement of 190-million tonnes of freight per annum by the end of the 2025/26 financial year. During the course of 2024 the entity has failed to reach its own targets on recovery of freight volumes. In the 2023/24 financial year Transnet achieved only 28% of its targets,” she said.  Creecy bemoaned the fact that “our ports are underperforming”, saying: “The industry standard is 25-30 crane moves per hour. Currently our ports are performing at less than 20 moves per hour. This results in long waiting times for vessels.”

Outstanding articles of the week. Summary of some news Headlines in the Farming and Agriculture media.

The water cycle refers to the complex system by which water moves around the Earth. Water evaporates from the ground — including from lakes, rivers and plants — and rises into the atmosphere, forming large rivers of water vapor able to travel long distances, before cooling, condensing and eventually falling back to the ground as rain or snow.

The deregulation of South Africa’s agricultural sector in the early 1990s aimed to open the country’s markets to international trade and competition. However, it also made it harder for local farmers to compete due to cheaper imports and reduced protective tariffs. This has negatively impacted the sustainability of local agriculture, especially for small and medium-sized farmers. READ MORE 

The oil market is headed into a troubled year in 2025, and crude prices may fall "much, much" lower, according to Tom Kloza, global head of energy analysis at Oil Price Information Service. The oil analyst said crude prices would experience more downward pressure in 2025 despite concerns that conflict in the Middle East could escalate and send prices higher. Estimates from other energy forecasters, who have predicted that oil prices could trade as low as $50 a barrel, a decline of about 37% from where Brent crude was trading on Thursday. READ MORE 

Not all countries rely equally on South Africa’s agriculture and food industry. There are just seven dominant countries, namely, Botswana, Namibia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Eswatini, and Zambia, which accounted for 81% of South Africa’s agricultural exports to the African continent in 2023. In fact, over the past five years, these countries have accounted, on average, for 80% of South Africa’s agricultural exports to the African continent a year. READ MORE

Daar is 2,2 miljoen vuurwapens wat deur 502 staatsentiteite in Suid-Afrika besit word. Hiervan word na raming 1 800 jaarliks ​​verlore of gesteel, wat die onwettige mark betree en hul weg na die hande van misdadigers vind. Tog is die polisie die enigste staatsentiteit wat van sy verlore of gesteelde vuurwapens aanmeld. SAPD besit saam met die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag (SANW) minder as 30% van die totale aantal staatsbeheerde vuurwapens. Intussen het die gemiddelde aantal vuurwapenverwante moorde in Suid-Afrika van 23 per dag in die 2021/22-boekjaar tot 34

gestyg.

WAT is 'n ONWETTIGE dam- ?- In die verlede het die departement van water en sanitasie taamlik ver agteroorgebuig deur gebruikers die geleentheid te gun om (ongemagtigde) damstrukture gewettig te kry. ’n Mens sien egter die afgelope paar jaar ’n kentering in hierdie benadering, met die departement wat toenemend direktiewe vir die afbreek van onwettige damme uitreik.

South Africa boasts a well-developed manufacturing sector. In 2023, the sector in its entirety provided more than 1.6 million jobs and accounted for 13.0% of South Africa’s gross domestic product (GDP).

Nitrogen pollution is produced by a number of interlinked compounds, from ammonia to nitrous oxide. While they have both natural and human sources, the latter increased dramatically over the past century as farmers scaled up food production in response to population growth.

Eskom het verskeie geheime transaksies met groot mynmaatskappye, insluitend South32 en Glencore, om hul smelters in Suid-Afrika van uiters goedkoop elektrisiteit te voorsien. Dit is terwyl gewone verbruikers herhaalde dubbelsyferverhogings moet hanteer, aangesien Eskom sy inkomstetekort wil verklein.

Despite signs of a fragile economic recovery, sub-Saharan Africa, remains stuck in “low gear” with a large youth population at risk of being left behind. That’s according to the latest edition of Africa's Pulse, the World Bank’s twice-yearly regional economic update, which was released last week.

The world economy and South Africa’s economy are not immune from the consequences. Major commodity traders, logistics and shipping companies are the most affected. Normally, we would also expect crude oil prices to sharply increase, resulting in South Africans suffering more at the petrol pumps.

Reënneerslae het sedert die naweek van 19 Oktober plek-plek oor kleiner kolle en strepe van die oostelike produksiegebiede van die somerreënstreek begin voorkom, wat die begin van die reënseisoen aandui.

Die lae vlakke van die Zambezi-rivier wek kommer in Zimbabwe. Die land genereer tans 1 020 megawatt met Kariba wat net 320 megawatt kan bydra. Kenners beskryf die opwekkingskapasiteit van Zimbabwe, op maksimum 2 000 megawatt as pateties en sê daar is nie pas gehou met die bevolkingsgroei nie. Die land het amper 16,7 miljoen mense.

TLU SA acknowledges and appreciates the media professionals who have made exceptional contributions in 2024 by conveying our core message of economic sustainability in agriculture.

Kenners waarsku die mensdom gaan binnekort die aarde se natuurlike grense oorskry, en dringende optrede is nodig. Natuurlewe-bevolkings het sedert 1970 met gemiddeld 73-persent gedaal. Wetenskaplikes sê as dié verlies aan bioverskeidenheid voortduur, kan krisisse soos voedseltekorte en ekologiese ineenstorting volg.

Die NAMPO Alfa2024 ekspo het vanjaar weereens bo verwagting gevaar, met goeie samewerking van uitstallers én bywoners. Albert Loubser, een van die NAMPO Alfa hooforganiseerders, het gesê dat die reëlings glad verloop het, met gunstige weerstoestande en suksesvolle biosekuriteitsmaatreëls wat alles bygedra het tot die sukses van die geleentheid.

‘n Onlangse studie het gewys Afrika maak goeie vordering met die gebruik van tegnologie in die landbousektor. Kenners sê boere wat toenemend robotte gebruik, mik daarna om boerderymetodes te vernuwe en voedselsekerheid op die vasteland te bevorder.
