Yesterday (Monday), newly appointed Police Minister Senzo Mchunu emphasised the importance of keeping the country's police officers safe. He was speaking in Pretoria as he briefed the media, outlining the priorities for the ministry of police in the seventh administration. He says, attacking police officers whether on or off duty is regarded as an attack against the state. As assuring as that sounds, what are the men and women in blue saying on the ground? We speak now to the unions as it is their members who are facing the challenges on the ground and also arrested for criminality.

The union’s take on the state of policing

Sustainability is a challenge facing small-scale farmers and it impacts the business of agriculture at several levels: profitability as the cost of seed to export increases with inflation. One may have to consider whether to diversify the output of your product (think sugarcane and their by-products, for example). One also has to consider whether to introduce alternative farming methods where there is a lack of resources or basic infrastructure. Finally, how to adapt to climate change events   which extends the production period and makes communities food insecure.

As part of a series of discussions, we unpack the state of our agricultural sector with a focus on the 2 million small-scale farmers that are in operation. Today, we will address some of the issues raised around sustainability of these holdings and what are some of the solutions that can be shared in building a more expansive small-scale farming landscape.

At first they were denied entry, then when the Talking Point team intervened, the officials then met with them leading to a happy ending.
