@basterdbat1850@HLABARINTO@Rheamund_ This must be your nerve responding because you're pulling stats. I wouldn't advise you to trust any of you own suggestions anyways. clearly, thinking is something that precedes a heavy migraine so you should tred carefully away from it Dannie.
@basterdbat1850@HLABARINTO@Rheamund_ Can't even fathom the fact we have pull out a second language to accomodate your only method of communication. A concept that's completely a myth in your declining excuse of nation. And It's very ironic that trigger happy school shooting retards should talk about education.
@HLABARINTO@Rheamund_ All you needed to say was “South Africa would’ve been through in the old format too” instead of all that gibberish. It’s ok I’m sure schools hard in the 3rd world when your government can’t even provide enough electricity to power your country. 2/10 rebuttal.
@JordanB170@ScottyOne866371@8bdrssss Besides Mexico, South Africa is the only team in the group that didn't lose two times. So how is it crazy that they finished 2nd
@ScottyOne866371@8bdrssss The fact that South Africa somehow got 2nd is genuinely crazy. Also alot of these 3rd place teams have no business going to the KO rounds
@UbuntuTruth@thomasmlambo A LOT of back passes … even misplaced some passes … he was so ass today just a little better than last time but still so asss
But one must be honest
The Northern Cape dominates South Africa in total commercial agricultural land (over 37%), but this is largely arid rangeland. In contrast, KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) , Western Cape Eastern Cape and Limpopo feature higher rainfall and more fertile, arable land, making them much more suitable for intensive crop farming and high-density livestock.
The bulk of the 87 % was never the BEST land. Inconvenient truth /fact one must consider
1. Northern CapeArable Profile: The province has the largest share of commercial farmland in the country, but the majority is dedicated to extensive livestock (sheep/goats) and game farming.Crop Production: High-value arable farming is almost entirely reliant on irrigation, concentrated along the Orange River. Major crops include table grapes, raisins, dates, and lucerne.
Land Value: Due to vast, arid expanses, land prices are the lowest nationally, averaging around R4,030 per hectare.
2. KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) Arable Profile: KZN possesses excellent natural rainfall and a highly favorable climate for diverse cropping. Crop Production: Known for sugarcane, timber (eucalyptus/pine), macadamia nuts, and intensive dairy and beef farming along the midlands.
Land Value: Farmland is significantly more expensive, trading at an average of R26,326 per hectare. It holds considerable potential for expanding agricultural output, though much of its former communal land remains underutilized due to tenure and infrastructure challenges.
3. Eastern Cape Arable Profile: The province makes up 12.3% of commercial agricultural land. The coastal belt features exceptional subtropical and dairy farming, while the interior is largely arid or semi-arid for livestock.Crop Production: Famous for citrus (along the Sundays River), deciduous fruits (in the Langkloof), wool, and extensive livestock.
Land Value: Arable land prices average roughly R17,623 per hectare. Like KZN, it features large expanses of highly fertile but under-farmed former homeland land requiring structural investment.
4. Limpopo Arable Profile: While Limpopo has a smaller share of the country's total commercial land (3.7%), it punches far above its weight in high-yield, subtropical fruit and vegetable production. Crop Production: South Africa's undisputed leader in mangoes, avocados, tomatoes, and macadamias, largely owing to its hot, sub-tropical climate and strong irrigation infrastructure.
Land Value: Average arable land prices sit around R14,818 per hectare, making it a highly productive but relatively expensive region to develop
5. Western Cape: Intensive Horticulture and Mixed CroppingLand Profile: Represents a major portion of the country's commercial farms, though significantly smaller in total area than the Northern Cape. Arable Profile: Features excellent winter-rainfall arable land. Key Farming Types: Dominates the national wine, deciduous fruit (apples, pears), and citrus industries. It is also a primary producer of winter wheat and canola.
Cost: High agricultural land prices (averaging around R16,214/ha), driven by consistent productivity and export infrastructure
