Impact of drought: 3 Thresholds

  • Area planted summer crops
  • Pastures – first summer

growth

  • Impact on irrigation

agriculture still limited

  • Critical for yields
  • Pastures-late summer

growth

  • Heat affecting fruits ..
  • Smaller dams and

boreholes affected

  • Critical for all dams

and boreholes etc

  • Long-term damage on

pastures

  • All three industries

affected

Reasons for vulnerability

  • Industries important to either job creation or food security are

showing signs of vulnerability. Reasons are:

  • Exchange rate volatility
  • Labour environment volatility
  • Trade tariff structures & non-tariff trade measures inhibiting

growth

  • High relative cost of capital
  • Policy uncertainty with respect to land reform & land
  • wnership dampens investment, innovation & overall drive
  • Limited availability of water
  • Unreliable supply of electricity
  • Lack in cost effective logistics, mainly rail
  • Lack of coherency between and within different government

departments

Proposed Interventions

  • “Keep farmers on the ground”
  • Best chance of reducing maize meal prices and food

security in next season – back to export parity?

  • Restructuring debt: Security on loans & “Soft-loan”
  • ptions to finance shortfall (input costs & additional feed

demand)

  • Carefully monitor irrigation water usage and availability
  • Crop insurance support
  • Staple food price complex
  • Allow GM white maize imports from USA.
  • Identify vulnerable household hardest hit (IVIS spatial map)
  • SASSA (SA social security agency (social relief for distressed

households – R940 million approved)

  • Increase frequency of food price & marketing margin

monitoring by NAMC - efficient pass through of potential commodity price declines
