Show Notes
South African farmers face severe fuel shortages, impacting production during peak season. AgriSA and Agbiz report tight supplies, urging the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy for immediate action. Fuel costs, accounting for 12-18% of farming expenses, threaten planting, harvesting, and food supply chains. Western Cape Premier Alan Winde accuses suppliers of hoarding fuel, while FIASA attributes the issue to market manipulations, not stock shortages.
