South Africa’s economic growth is stagnating due to multiple systemic issues, despite a 15.8% growth in agricultural Gross Value Added (GVA) in Q1 2025, which contributed 0.4 percentage points to the national GDP growth of 0.1%. However, agriculture’s volatility, driven by factors like weather, electricity, and transportation, limits its reliability as a growth driver. Critical infrastructure, including electricity (e.g., loadshedding), water, and transport (rail, ports, roads), has deteriorated significantly. Loadshedding alone may have reduced potential GDP growth by up to 3%, while Transnet’s inefficiencies, with a R136 billion debt, cost the economy over R1 billion daily. Restoring infrastructure requires an estimated R150 billion annually for repairs and R200 billion for rail restoration.
Die laaste week van die oorsigmaand vir Julie se brandstofpryse het begin, met finale onderverhalings volgende week bekend. ’n Prysverlaging sal ’n groot daling in oliepryse en ’n sterker rand vereis, maar ’n styging is waarskynliker – die eerste in vyf maande. Brent-ruolie het 10% gedaal tot $77,21 per vat ná Israel se aanval op Iran. Die rand, wat aanvanklik sterk was, keer ’n bykomende 15c/l styging, maar het verswak tot R18,07 teen die dollar (swakste sedert 19 Mei). ’n Waarskynlike brandstofprysstyging in Julie 2025, gedryf deur wêreldgebeure en ’n swakker rand, kan die ekonomie druk, inflasie verhoog en groei beperk, tensy oliepryse skerp daal of die rand versterk.
The National Livestock Farmers' Association of South Africa (NaLFA-SA) warned that farmers failing to update their insurers about business changes risk denied insurance claims, which could harm food production, employment, and the national economy. This follows a statement from Western National Insurance, highlighting a growing issue where farmers neglect to report operational changes, creating a “critical blind spot” in the farming industry. Western National Insurance’s underwriting head, Jan-Hendrik Botha, noted that undisclosed changes, such as leasing land, entering joint ventures, installing solar panels, building cold storage, or switching to high-value crops (e.g., berries or nuts), alter a farm’s risk profile. These unreported changes can invalidate insurance policies, leading to denied claims.
Tydens ’n bespreking by die Elsenburg Landboukollege het Landbouminister John Steenhuisen die belang van kwaliteit opleiding vir landboustudente benadruk om die sektor se volhoubaarheid en groei te verseker. Hy het saam met verteenwoordigers van Suid-Afrika se 11 landboukolleges struikelblokke bespreek wat die gehalte van opleiding bedreig. Dr. Karabo Mabe (Potchefstroom-landboukollege) het gewys op verouderde infrastruktuur en ’n ontoereikende begroting van R100 miljoen vir 11 kolleges (gemiddeld R8 miljoen per kollege). Basiese instandhouding, soos gloeilampvervanging, neem maande. Die landbousektor is kritiek vir voedselsekerheid, ekonomiese groei, en nasionale sekerheid. Opleiding van nuwe boere is noodsaaklik om uittredende boere te vervang en voedselproduksie te waarborg.

CRA MEDIA - Actions speak louder than words. So, focus on winning through your actions rather than trying to win an argument.You need to think long-term if you want to maintain power. Consider all the possible outcomes of your actions and plan accordingly. Don’t accept things that people give to you for free. People will think they have power over you if you do. You won’t be able to exert your authority as easily.
