Letter from the Editor

By the time you read this, we might have a new ministerial cabinet - and those choices will send a clear signal about the type of economic policy that this new government is intending to pursue. But while we wait, our podcast from last week featured an interview with UCT economics professor Lawrence Edwards who had some advice for an incoming Trade and Industry Minister. A protectionist trade policy is one of the factors that impacted the South African economy, Lawrence unpacks the interconnectivity of government departments. Balanced imports and exports remain the cornerstone for good trade relations, flourishing economy and above all food security.

Our podcast this week could not be more different - an interview with one of our energetic Disruptors who is using technology and innovation to change the whole poultry value chain. It is an inspiring interview and great fun - we really suggest you give it a listen.

We also have another lively and opinionated Insider Perspective from Glen MacAlister, who certainly does not mince his words! And our weekly Poultry Analysis carries the usual variety of information.
