NEWS- NUUS

he sugar industry has recently seen a welcome groundswell of support from the government for its efforts to build a sustainable future for the industry.

Ons span was die afgelope 3 weke in die somer reenval gebied- Noord Wes- Noord Kaap- Vrystaat en Mpumalanga. Dit is nie mooi gesig nie- met die hitte word alles doodgebrand-  Sojabone vrek met die opkomslag en jongmielies draai toe- omdat die wortels nog nie die ondervog kon bereik nie. Die droewinde maak dit nog erger. Gras is dood en die meeste klein dorpies sukkel met water. Krane is leeg en damme en boorgate is opgedroog. Verder Wes is nog slegter en is daar nie meer gras nie. Die kalahari is wit en dood en boere moet vee begin voer. Wanneer jy self geboer het en reeds hier deur is dan weet jy wat dit is- maar die hitte was nog nog nooit so vernietigend nie. Daar le miljoene rande se insetkoste in die grond en baie min plante om dit te gebruik. Dit kos net te veel om oor te plant. Van ons boere veg teen skuldeisers wat blykbaar geen benul het van boerdery nie en wat  werklik daarbuite gebeur nie.  Plattelandse dorpies se besigheid staan stil en mens  en dier kruip weg van die hitte. Ons weet dat die weer in 48 uur kan omdraai en verander- maar die skade is reeds daar en met 'n regering sonder geld gaan hierdie 'n moeilike pad wees. Suid Afrika se stapelvoedsel is reeds onbetaalbaar duur -en dit gaan nog duurder word. Volgens die deskundiges gaan reen vanaf Maandag moontlik wees.

Minister of agriculture John Steenhuisen last week publicly backed industry plans for diversification, especially into sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs), in a recent media interview. Recently, deputy ministers Zuko Godlimpi and Zoleka Capa from the department of trade, industry and competition (DTIC) and the department of agriculture, land reform and rural development (DALRRD) respectively met with sugar industry leaders and growers in KwaZulu-Natal. 

In die VSA word ’n ekonomiese bloeitydperk verwag. ’n Meer selfgeldende buitelandse beleid sal vroeg volgende jaar geïmplementeer word. Trump het tydens sy verkiesingsveldtog belowe om ’n einde aan die oorloë in Oekraïne en die Midde-Ooste te bring en om Afrika se buitelandse beleid in die algemeen weer in diens van die gewone Amerikaner te stel. Dit sal meer invoertariewe, ’n herbedink van Amerika se verhouding met baie lande in die wêreld en meer onderhandelings oor alles van handel, politieke en militêre samewerking – of soos die media verkies om na dit verwys “transaksionele buitelandse beleid” – insluit.

The Agbiz/IDC agribusiness confidence index (ACI), a sentiment indicator in the sector, increased by 10 points from Q3 to 58 in Q4. This is the second consecutive improvement, placing the ACI at its highest since Q2 2022. This level of the ACI implies that South African agribusinesses remain generally optimistic about business conditions in the country. This optimism is a result of a combination of factors, including favourable weather conditions, with expectations that La Niña rains will be supportive of the 2024/2025 agricultural season. The stable energy supply, improvements in port efficiency and the better political climate since the formation of the government of national unity are other aspects the respondents cited as underpinning their optimism.

Economists and South Africans were shocked last week when the latest gross domestic product (GDP) figures for the third quarter showed that the economy did not grow at all. While everybody agrees that the economy is in dire need of fixing, what will it take?

 

 

Why do South Africans talk so much about BRICS agricultural trade? Some of us in South Africa’s agriculture often talk of the need to grow export markets to BRICS countries. But such statements are not minimizing the relationship South African agriculture has with other regions such as the EU, African continent, Americas, etc.

South African Reserve Bank Governor Lesetja Kganyago said policymakers were proceeding with care on adjusting interest rates, to avoid feeling remorse in the future. “In an environment of uncertainty, it is very important for the central bank to move with caution and not add to the noise that you have in the data,” Kganyago said on Monday in an interview with CNBC Africa.

 

 

South Africa’s agriculture industry is under pressure to implement a credible traceability system to ensure improved food safety and quality control. The country is currently one of only a few African countries without a traceability system.

 

Van blote oorlewing word dit ‘n winsgewende onderneming. Nadat die insekte geoes is, meng Choumumba hulle met droogtebestande gewasse soos giers, koei-ertjies en sonneblom en ‘n bietjie sout. Met 15 kilogram maaiers wat elke 21 dae geoes word, kan sy sowat 375 kilogram hoendervoer produseer. Choumambo verkoop eiers en vrylopende hoenders aan restaurante, en van die voer aan mede-dorpenaars teen ‘n fraksie van die koste wat winkels vir tradisionele veevoer vra.
