Somergewasse – 2022
Kommersiële mielies
Die grootte van die verwagte kommersiële mielie-oes is 15,387 miljoen ton. Die skatting van die oppervlakte onder mielies is 2,623 miljoen ha, terwyl die verwagte opbrengs 5,87 t/ha is.
Die geskatte mielie-oes is 6% kleiner as die 2021-oes. Die drie belangrikste mielieproduserende gebiede, naamlik die Vrystaat, Mpumalanga en Noordwes provinsies, gaan na verwagting 82% van die 2022-oes produseer.
Die oppervlak onder witmielies is 1,575 miljoen ha en vir geelmielies is die oppervlak 1,048 miljoen ha.
Die produksieskatting van witmielies is onveranderd gelaat op 7,790 miljoen ton. Die opbrengs van witmielies is 4,95 t/ha. In die geval van geelmielies is die produksieskatting 7,597 miljoen ton, wat 0,77% of 58 100 ton meer is as die vorige skatting van 7,539 miljoen ton. Die opbrengs van geelmielies is 7,25 t/ha.
Sonneblomsaad: Die produksieskatting vir sonneblomsaad is onveranderd gelaat op 845 550 ton. Die oppervlakteskatting vir sonneblomsaad is 670 700 ha, terwyl die verwagte opbrengs 1,26 t/ha is.
Ander gewasse
Die produksieskatting van sojabone is ook onveranderd gelaat op 2,201 miljoen ton gestel. Die geskatte oppervlakte beplant met sojabone is 925 300 ha en die verwagte opbrengs is 2,38 t/ha.
Die verwagte grondbone-oes is onveranderd gelaat op 49 000 ton. Vir grondbone is die oppervlakteskatting 43 400 ha, terwyl the verwagte opbrengs 1,13 t/ha is.
Die produksieskatting van sorghum is 103 140 ton, wat 6,83% of 7 560 ton minder is as die vorige skatting van 110 700 ton. Die oppervlakteskatting vir sorghum is 37 200 ha, en die verwagte opbrengs is 2,77 t/ha.
In die geval van droëbone is die produksieskatting onveranderd gelaat op 52 590 ton. Die oppervlakte beplant met droëbone is 42 900 ha en die verwagte opbrengs is 1,23 t/ha.
Neem asseblief kennis dat die voorlopige oppervlakskatting vir somergewasse vir 2023, op 26 Januarie 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 area planted to maize in the non-commercial agricultural sector is estimated at 378 800 ha, which represents an increase of 4,38%, compared to the 362 900 ha of the previous season. The expected maize crop for this sector is 667 000 tons, which is 4,80% more than the 636 440 tons of last season. It is important to note that about 47% of the maize produced in the non-commercial sector, is planted in the Eastern Cape, followed by KwaZulu-Natal with 22%.
Die oppervlakte beplant met mielies in die nie-kommersiële landbou-sektor word geskat op 378 800 ha, wat 'n toename van 4,38% verteenwoordig in vergelyking met die 362 900 ha van die vorige seisoen. Die verwagte mielie-oes van dié sektor is 667 000 ton, wat 4,80% meer is as die 636 440 ton van die vorige seisoen. Dit is belangrik om daarop te let dat ongeveer 47% van die mielies wat geproduseer word in die nie-kommersiële sektor, in die Oos-Kaap geplant word, gevolg deur KwaZulu-Natal met 22%.
