Food security is being threatened by the persistent rolling blackouts. Irrigation farmers say the fields are severely affected and the ongoing blackouts will affect consumers.
“It’s quite a challenge at the moment because we are in the middle of the winter, of the crop season and the potential is being laid out at the moment and if we cannot water the stuff, there is going to be a much smaller yield at the end and there needs to be more importing of wheat to bake some bread for South Africa,” says Bruwer.
“The crop that we planted in June and July is by far the most expensive wheat that we ever planted with the high diesel prices and the high fertiliser and input prices. So, somewhere it is going to put it over to the consumer at the end of the chain, because the diesel prices and the electricity scarcity at the moment are affecting it hugely and the yield is not going to be what it should be. So, it is red flags all the way,” Bruwer added.“We have to do something.
