Show Notes

South Africas fuel crisis escalates as prices soar, with diesel potentially reaching ten rand per liter and petrol over five rand per liter. AgriSA and Agbiz urge the energy department to modify the pricing formula to address supply shortages, particularly in rural areas. The Central Energy Fund predicts under-recoveries, with illuminating paraffin already short by eleven rand sixty-three cents per liter. Long queues and rationing are reported, with farmers and producers facing challenges during key planting times. AgriSA and Agbiz call for immediate price adjustments and more frequent market checks to curb hoarding and stabilize the economy.
