‘Future-Proofing Plant Production’
The future holds many challenges that will impact plant production. Here is a list of some key issues:
Climate change: Resulting in above-normal temperatures which will not be optimal for many plant varieties we grow and how we grow them.
Tough economic conditions: Leading to higher input costs and less disposable income.
Inefficiencies in government and local councils: Resulting in infrastructure collapse that affects electricity and water supply, alongside inefficiencies at South African harbours and within the transport network.
Growing media availability, cost, and quality: Affected by the local paper industry shifting from pine to eucalyptus trees, a poor exchange rate, and limited shipping availability.
Looking forward to you sharing your knowledge and expertise on how these and other challenges will impact plant production and what possible solutions could be applied.
