Agriculture sits at the heart of South Africa’s economy, identity, and future. From smallholder farmers working the land with generational knowledge to large-scale commercial operations feeding local and global markets, agriculture shapes how we eat, work, and grow as a nation.

Yet in a world of rapid change — climate shifts, market volatility, policy debates, new technologies, and global competition — access to reliable, timely, and practical agricultural information has never been more important.

Today, we are proud to announce the launch of AgriWeb — a dedicated digital news platform built to inform, empower, and connect the agriculture community.

What is AgriWeb?

AgriWeb is a South African agriculture news and insights platform, delivering:

Daily sector news and announcements
Market trends and agribusiness updates
Crop and livestock production insights
Policy and government affairs
Climate, sustainability, and innovation stories
Profiles of farmers and agripreneurs shaping the industry

Our goal is simple:

To help growers, agripreneurs, professionals, and stakeholders stay informed and ahead.

Why AgriWeb Matters

Agriculture is evolving. New tools — from drone mapping to regenerative farming — are redefining what is possible. Markets shift faster. Policies impact livelihoods. Opportunities are emerging across value chains: food processing, logistics, agroforestry, seed systems, and beyond.

But information remains fragmented.

Some updates live in government bulletins.Some in WhatsApp groups.Some in industry reports most people never see.

AgriWeb brings it all into one trusted, accessible, and always-on platform.
