South Africa must push agricultural exports within BRICS
Loading player...
South Africa has an export-led agricultural sector, with exports having been a major catalyst in the sector’s growth over the past three decades. But rising geopolitical tensions have introduced new risks, leading to an increased need for the country to diversify its export agricultural markets.
In this podcast, we argue that South Africa should expand market access to some key BRICS countries, such as China, India, Egypt, and Saudia Arabia.
Other strategic export markets for South Africa's agricultural sector include South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Taiwan, Mexico, the Philippines, and Bangladesh. Currently, the significant challenges in these markets are high import tariffs and phytosanitary barriers. Listen to the podcast for more.
