Die nuwe regulasies, voorgestel deur die minister van polisie en PSIRA, beoog om die gebruik van wapens deur private sekuriteitsmaatskappye streng te beheer. Vuurwapens, boeie, pepersproei, tazers, rubber- en plastiekkoeëls word as wapens geklassifiseer en hul gebruik in openbare plekke verbied, tensy sewe dae vooraf toestemming by die reguleerder verkry word. Dit skep praktiese uitdagings, soos by onwettige betogings, waar voorafbeplanning onmoontlik is.

Outstanding articles of the week. Summary of some news Headlines in the Farming and Agriculture media.
First is a lack of coherence between national policies and local realities. The objectives of governments and funders don’t always align with the livelihood goals of irrigators. Governments strive for food security and large donors tend to finance and develop large irrigation projects. READ MORE
Since the U.S. authorities announced import tariffs on an unprecedented scale against several countries, the confusion about how practically they will apply lingers. We still have insufficient details regarding tariff levels by product as the U.S. authorities have not provided much official guidance. This dearth of detail creates uncertainty and limits the ability of the South African authorities to engage productively with their U.S. counterparts. READ MORE
In recent years, the global landscape has been marked by an increasing prominence of risks, seemingly multiplying within our own borders. Agriculture, in particular, stands out as a sector uniquely burdened with a myriad of risks. READ MORE

Farming isn’t your typical 9-to-5 gig. It’s a lifestyle that demands early mornings, late nights, and plenty of time operating machinery or walking the land. That’s where Audiocast shine. They’re hands-free, portable, and don’t care if you’re covered in dirt or steering through a muddy field. Unlike a book or a video, a Audiocast doesn’t ask you to stop what you’re doing—it joins you in the cab, the shed, or wherever the day takes you. And farmers are listening. Surveys suggest that a significant chunk of the agricultural community—some estimates say over a third—tune into ag-related podcasts regularly. Whether it’s catching up on market trends, learning about the latest in soil health, or just hearing a good story from another grower, these audio shows have become a go-to resource.
15 Best South Africa News Podcasts
AGRI NEWS NET on NUMBER 7 for the month of March 2025
The numbers tell the story: Audiocast listenership is climbing, and agriculture is no exception. By some estimates, over 100 million people in the U.S. alone are tuning into podcasts, with farmers and ranchers making up a dedicated slice of that pie. Successful ag-focused shows are racking up thousands of downloads per episode, and some are even attracting sponsors eager to reach this engaged audience.
This week, South African citrus growers will begin packing fruit for the US market, just as a new 30% tariff on South African exports to the US takes effect on April 9, 2025. This tariff, significantly higher than the 10% baseline applied to competitors in South America, threatens the competitiveness of South African citrus, adding $4.25 per carton.
USA will implement 31% tariffs from 9 April 2025. USA exempted the following from tariffs - Copper, Pharmaceuticals, Semiconductors , Lumber articles, Critical minerals , Energy products USA requires the following from SA - 97% chrome, 6 % fluorspar, 24% manganese
Die Namibiese Departement van Landbou, Visserye, Water en Grondhervorming het op 3 April 2025 skielik alle permitte vir die invoer van genetiese materiaal van gesplete hoefdiere uit Suid-Afrika gekanselleer, tot verdere kennisgewing. Dit volg na die grens in 2021 gesluit is weens bek-en-klouseer-uitbrekings in Suid-Afrika, maar sedert Desember 2024 is semen-invoere toegelaat en ’n maand gelede ook embrio’s.
Vir die volgende ses maande sal landbouers in die Makoppa-gebied van Limpopo geen inkomste hê nie na verwoestende vloede einde Februarie, wat die ergste in menseheugenis was. Dit bedreig die werksekuriteit van minstens 1 500 produsente en plaasarbeiders.
Blockchain enhances transaction speed, cost-efficiency, security, transparency, and traceability across public (e.g., Bitcoin) and permissioned networks. Smart contracts, self-executing digital agreements, automate processes, reducing errors and operational costs while boosting trust.
Justin Chadwick, CEO of the Citrus Growers Association (CGA) of South Africa for 25 years, is set to retire at the end of March 2025. Starting as the sole employee in a newly deregulated and fragmented citrus industry, he built the CGA into a robust organization with subsidiaries like the Citrus Academy and hundreds of employees.
China's Soybean Imports Expected to Decline in 2025 -After reaching a record 105.03M tons in 2024, China's soybean imports are projected to drop slightly in 2025 (-3.84% YoY). Key factors: rising global prices, stable hog farming stocks, and stronger domestic soybean production. With rising import costs and evolving demand dynamics, China’s soybean market is set for a shift.
Die nuwe regulasies, voorgestel deur die minister van polisie en PSIRA, beoog om die gebruik van wapens deur private sekuriteitsmaatskappye streng te beheer. Vuurwapens, boeie, pepersproei, tazers, rubber- en plastiekkoeëls word as wapens geklassifiseer en hul gebruik in openbare plekke verbied, tensy sewe dae vooraf toestemming by die reguleerder verkry word.
Boere in die Noord-Kaap probeer hul skaapgetalle opbou danksy die goeie reën wat plek-plek voorkom. Dit het tot gevolg dat minder lammers geslag word. Die pryse is vanjaar baie meer stabiel as in vorige jare. Die pryse van lammers bo 14kg wissel tussen R99/kg en R105/kg, terwyl lammers onder 14kg se pryse van R88/kg tot R91/kg wissel.”
