Global cotton ending stocks for 2024/25 dropped 3.8% to 15.37 million tonnes — the lowest since 2011/12 — mainly because China cut imports by 65% and its stocks fell 9% to the lowest level since 2012/13. Outside China, stocks rose slightly, led by the US, Brazil and West Africa. For 2025/26, production is expected to climb to 25.4 million tonnes on better yields while consumption edges down to 25 million tonnes amid weak textile demand; trade is forecast to rebound 4% to 9.8 million tonnes, helped by stronger Chinese buying and new partnerships. The US farm price for 2025/26 is projected at 65 US cents per pound.
Die afgelope naweek se swaar reën oor groot dele van Suid-Afrika se somerreënvalgebiede het neerslae van tot 100 mm+ opgelewer – in plekke byna die helfte van die jaarlikse gemiddelde. Mpumalanga se Hoëveld, die noordelike Vrystaat (tot 115 mm by Nampopark, Welkom >200 mm), Noordwes (20–130 mm) en die Springbokvlakte in Limpopo (50–110 mm) het veral baie reën gekry.Boere is dankbaar vir die vog, maar waarsku dat die nat seisoen groot uitdagings bring: baie produsente kon nog nie plant nie omdat lande te nat is, terwyl ander suid van Bothaville al 300–400 mm vir die seisoen het – meer as die helfte van die jaarlikse gemiddelde. Verliese in ’n uitsonderlik nat jaar kan soms erger wees as in ’n droogte, veral waar oes en plant albei vertraag word.Die Vaaldam se vlak het skerp gestyg, wat Maandag gelei het tot die oopmaak van vyf sluise. Boere in Noordwes en op die Springbokvlakte is optimisties oor ’n goeie seisoen, maar wag nou op son om te kan plant of om bestaande aanplantings te laat groei.
South Africa’s tax base is extremely narrow and concentrated: just 978,140 individuals (about 1.5% of the population) pay 60.6% of all personal income tax, contributing R442 billion annually. Together with the next tier (3.5 million people earning R250,000–R750,000), the top 6% of taxpayers fund 95% of personal income tax — the single largest revenue source at nearly 40% of total government income (R729.9 billion).Overall, personal and corporate income tax make up 57% of state revenue (over R1 trillion). SARS has performed remarkably by collecting more tax than GDP growth would suggest (tax buoyancy >1.5%), largely by closing an estimated R800 billion tax gap.
TLU SA het tydens sy jaarlikse mediafunksie in Silverton met groot dankbaarheid die TLU SA Sonneblom-toekenning toegeken aan joernaliste en mediaplatforms wat in 2025 uitmuntend presteer het met eerlike, gebalanseerde en waarheidsgetroue dekking van landbou, plattelandse sake en die daaglikse realiteite van boere.Volgens Bennie van Zyl, hoofbestuurder van TLU SA, is joernaliste dikwels die enigste brug tussen die boer se werklikheid en die breër samelewing se begrip daarvan. Die Sonneblom-toekenning verteenwoordig helderheid, waarheid, hoop en standvastigheid – waardes wat TLU SA self nastreef en wat vanjaar duidelik na vore gekom het in die werk van die bekroondes.

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.
