El Niño could pose threat to SA's food security - Agricultural Business Chamber

JOHANNESBURG - The Agricultural Business Chamber said that the upcoming El Niño weather effects could pose a threat to South Africa's food security in the near future.

Recent data from the International Research Institute for Climate suggests that El Niño is expected to kick off by the end of this year. Forecaster Lehlohonolo Thobela explains the phenomenon: "Less rainfall is expected for a region. El Niño might result in some drought as an effect of less rainfall."

The shortfall of maize and other rainfed crops necessitated imports that the country would not be able to afford this time around.
