Show Notes
South Africans brace for significant fuel price hikes in April, with petrol prices rising by R5.70 for 93 octane and R5.62 for 95 octane per liter, and diesel increasing by R9.37 for 0.05% sulfur and R9.50 for the lower sulfur version. Despite assurances of stable national fuel supplies, farmers in the Western Cape, particularly along the Garden Route and Klein Karoo, face severe diesel shortages, potentially impacting fertilizer costs and food prices. The provincial government is monitoring the situation and working with industry groups to address disruptions in agriculture and transport.
