Die grootte van die verwagte kommersiële mielie-oes is 16,410 miljoen ton, wat 0,34% of 55 400 ton meer is as die 16,354 miljoen ton van die vorige skatting. Die oppervlakteskatting vir mielies is 2,586 miljoen ha en die verwagte opbrengs is 6,35 t/ha.
Die geskatte mielie-oes is 6,07% of 939 500 ton groter as die 2022-oes. Die drie belangrikste mielieproduserende gebiede, naamlik die Vrystaat, Mpumalanga en Noordwes provinsies, gaan na verwagting 83% van die 2023-oes produseer.
Die produksieskatting van witmielies is onveranderd gelaat op 8,638 miljoen ton. Die oppervlakteskatting vir witmielies is 1,521 miljoen ha en die verwagte opbrengs is 5,68 t/ha.
In die geval van geelmielies is die produksieskatting 7,716 miljoen ton, wat 0,72% of 55 400 ton meer is as die 7,716 miljoen ton van die vorige skatting. Die oppervlakteskatting vir geelmielies is 1,065 miljoen ha en die opbrengs is 7,30 t/ha.
Ander somergewasse
Sonneblomsaad: Die produksieskatting vir sonneblomsaad is op 743 610 ton gestel, wat 1,98% of 15 000 ton minder is as die 758 610 ton van die vorige skatting. Die oppervlakteskatting vir sonneblomsaad is 555 700 ha, terwyl die verwagte opbrengs 1,34 t/ha is.
Ander gewasse
Die produksieskatting van sojabone is onveranderd gelaat op 2,755 miljoen ton. Die geskatte oppervlakte beplant met sojabone is 1,148 miljoen ha en die verwagte opbrengs is 2,40 t/ha.
Die verwagte grondbone-oes is ook onveranderd gelaat op 51 910 ton. Vir grondbone is die oppervlakteskatting 31 300 ha, terwyl the verwagte opbrengs 1,66 t/ha is.
Die produksieskatting van sorghum is nou 97 740 ton, wat 2,77% of 2 785 ton minder is as die 100 525 ton van die vorige skatting. Die oppervlakteskatting vir sorghum is 34 000 ha, en die verwagte opbrengs is 2,87 t/ha.
In die geval van droëbone is die produksieskatting 50 260 ton, wat 3,50% of 1 700 ton meer is as die 48 560 ton van die vorige skatting. Die oppervlakte beplant met droëbone is 36 650 ha, en die verwagte opbrengs is 1,37 t/ha.
Neem asseblief kennis dat die agtste produksieskatting vir somergewasse vir 2023, op 27 September 2023 vrygestel sal word.
Inligting is beskikbaar aanlyn by die Department of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development of by SAGIS, vanaf 14:30 op die dag van die toepaslike vergadering van die Oesskattingskomitee.

The preliminary area planted to maize in the non-commercial agricultural sector is estimated at 358 620 ha, which represents a decrease of 5,33%, compared to the 378 800 ha of the previous season. The expected maize crop for this sector is 664 040 tons, which is 0,44% less than the 667 000 tons of last season. It is important to note that about 48% of the maize produced in the non-commercial sector, is planted in the Eastern Cape, followed by KwaZulu-Natal with 21%.
Die voorlopige oppervlakte beplant met mielies in die nie-kommersiële landbou-sektor word geskat op 358 620 ha, wat 'n afname van 5,33% verteenwoordig in vergelyking met die 378 800 ha van die vorige seisoen. Die verwagte mielie-oes van dié sektor is 664 040 ton, wat 0,44% minder is as die 667 000 ton van die vorige seisoen. Dit is belangrik om daarop te let dat ongeveer 48% van die mielies wat geproduseer word in die nie-kommersiële sektor, in die Oos-Kaap geplant word, gevolg deur KwaZulu-Natal met 21%.
