Overview•I am pleased to submit the Strategic plan for the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries 2011/12 to 2014/15 for tabling in Parliament.

•Section 27(4) of Public Finance Management Act requires that the accounting officer of a department must submit measurable objectives within its department’s programmes to the National Assembly

•In line with the requirements of the PFMA and Treasury Regulations, DAFF would like to table the 5 year Strategic Plan before Parliament

•The Strategic plan complies with the guidelines provided by National Treasury and the Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA).

•As required also by PFMA and Treasury Regulations, we are tabling a detailed plan for year one of the multi-year period

•The presentation will focus on deliverables for the MTEF cycle for six budgetary programmes for 2011/12 to 2013/14, as allocated by National Treasury

•Lastly the presentation will focus on the Annual Performance Plan of the six departmental programmes as reflected in Annexture1 of the strategic plan

Agricultural production

Estimated volume of agricultural production in 2009/10 was 4,8% higher than in 2008/09

Volume of field-crop production reflected a 3,1% increase as a result of an improvement in the production of summer grains

Maize production increased with 1,4 million tons or 10,8% against the previous season, followed by sugar cane with 468 000 tons or 2,5% and Lucerne hay with 374 000 tons or 33,9%

Horticultural production decreased by 1,6%, mainly because of a drop in the production of citrus and subtropical fruit

Production of oranges decreased by 5,5% and that of potatoes by 3,6%

Animal production increased by 8,8% as a result of increases of 41,1% in fresh milk production and 5,6% in stock slaughtered

However, pastoral products (wool, mohair, karakul pelts and ostrich feathers) showed a decrease in production of 3,1%

Food price inflation has come down significantly over the past two years (from late teens in 2008 to the current 2%).However, it continues to be sensitive to world price movements and exchange rate.Recent upward trends in world prices is a concern (recent FAO report), and RSA has so far escaped due to the strong Rand.DAFF continues to monitor the trends and will be releasing regular updates.The Competition Commission has also been vigilant with regards to price fixing.

The sector has not escaped the recent job shedding that has taken place recently due to recession

Future growth in employment is dependent on implementation of the New Growth Path premised on sectors such as agriculture

38

Challenges in the Sector The unregulated market environment, which exposes the sector to fluctuations in

world prices The decreasing share of field crops in agricultural production and South Africa’s

move from being a net exporter of foods to a net importer The growing dominance of retail chains and an increasing farmer to retail price

differential High input costs for, among others, fertiliser, fuel and feedstock Poorly skilled subsistence and emerging farmers, who only achieve low

production volumes and productivity levels A lack of agricultural spatial planning and poor infrastructure, which makes it

difficult for farmers to liaise with buyers, access markets and boost sales Poor information and knowledge management for small holder farmers, which

prevents them from correctly addressing production challenges and Agricultural R&D agenda and practical implementation has little impact on the

growth and development of the sector

39

Challenges in the Sector: Commercial

There has been a significant increase in the concentration of the commercial sector, as a result of smaller and less efficient business, unable to take advantage of increasing economies of scale, being forced out of the sector

Profitability has increased, but at slower rates, and is attributed to a concentrated few that’s has been able to survive global market and financial challenges

Transformation in the commercial sector in all three sectors (Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries) remains a challenge

i. Differences in interpretation, and implementation.

ii. Transformation is still mainly translated as the number of ‘black’ individuals in a company.

iii. Challenge with transformation not having significant socioeconomic impact. Plans per programmes

40

Challenges in the Sector: Commercial Cont…

An increase in production in agriculture, has mainly been horticultural crops, with a significant decrease in field crops (source of staple food), and translates into increasing concerns around National Food Security (Household Food Security)

Increasing food prices, and anti-competitive behaviour too impacts on national food security

Limited innovation systems, the slow rate of opening up new markets and value adding opportunities however there are challenges on certain commodities

Many of the challenges stem from a lack of compliance rather than lack of appropriate regulations i.e. poor enforcement

41

Challenges in the Sector: Smallholder

Inadequate support services / Extension services essential to grow and develop the smallholder and subsistent sector

Technical support services currently inadequate, there is a need for an upscale and expansion of support offered

Uncoordinated spatial plans to guide implementation of support programmes, access their economic impact and ensure easy monitoring and evaluation

42

Challenges in the Sector: Smallholder Cont…

Inadequate and unstructured intervention in regard to provision of on-farm infrastructure such as water sources (dams, windmills, irrigation schemes) essential for sustainable production

Implementation of the mechanisation support programme very weak due to the lack of a targeted programme

Lack of support for the established small-holders to establish commodity groups Inadequate access to agro-processing industries for value addition No guaranteed market for products produced by small holders Poor infrastructure to ensure equitable access to development finance through

our grant system and loans programmes Uncoordinated or lack of targeted training for smallholders

43

Challenges in the Sector: Smallholders Cont…

Aquaculture – Limited investments made in terms of hatcheries, research and disease management to promote aquaculture

Non-existent support (access to equipment, finance, extension and training) for the established small-holders in the fishery industry and small growers in forestry

Inadequate access to agro-processing industries for value addition

Insufficient access to development finance through our grant system and loans programmes i.e fisheries and forestry

44

Policy and programme interventions

Government adoption of the 12 Key Outcomes by the January 2010 Cabinet Lekgotla

Signing of performance agreements and Delivery Agreements with DAFF directly contributes to following 3 Outcomes with clear targets: Outcome (4): Decent employment through inclusive economic growth Outcome (7): Vibrant, equitable, sustainable rural communities contributing

towards food security for all Outcome (10): Protect and enhance our environmental assets and natural

resources

IPAP 2 New Growth Path Draft Integrated Growth and Development Path for the Sector Strategic Plan for smallholder farmers

Conclusion The strategy will be cascaded down to operations for implementation

Operational plans will be developed from strategic outputs, broken down into clear milestones with implementable activities

Operational plans will highlight various action steps to be undertaken in order to address the respective Unit’s priorities, the various deliverables and its associated performance indicators, responsible persons, target dates etc

Individual work plans aligned to the operational plans will be developed to reflect on the aspects of day to day service delivery activities of DAFF to ensure that the DAFF business community is well informed

Service standards and turnaround times will be developed for each service which needs to be reported against on a monthly basis

Monitoring and evaluation will be conducted monthly on planned outputs in the strategic plan and analyses of progress towards achieving strategic plan outputs

The reports will be aligned to the status reported against strategic outputs.

Reports will be produced quarterly and annually.
