August is Women's Month. Meet a young star in our Young Leadership Programme, Dr Tara Southey from TerraClim. Speaking about climate change and its impact on the deciduous fruit industry, Tara said: "The other thing I would say to every agricultural sector is that they must start collecting data on the orchard level or per bin. I want them to become more aware of what data they’re collecting, what data are available, and how it can be integrated to find more intelligent solutions." https://lnkd.in/dfBnHXfk

Te veel vroegseisoen koue het sommige kernvrugkultivars se set benadeel terwyl te min laatseisoen koue ander se rooi kleurontwikkeling gekelder het. Die 2022–23 seisoen is deur erge haelskade in verskeie kernvrugproduksieareas gekenmerk. Produsente was egter optimisties oor die vooruitsigte vir 2023–24 gegewe uitstekende winterkoue en genoegsame reëns – ’n produsent se beste jaar is mos altyd volgende jaar. https://lnkd.in/d6uc9v34
