Key Priorities for the South African Agricultural Sector in 2025
South Africa’s agricultural sector is heavily reliant on exports, but regulatory challenges and animal disease outbreaks have impacted trade.

Rising temperatures, shifting rainfall patterns, and extreme weather from climate change also pose a significant threat, and could further hinder the industry’s attempts to export goods.
