Late rains damage Cape barley crop

29 Oct 2012
Richard Krige, Overberg grain farmer and Grain SA’s representative for the region, said that wheat plantings in and around Swellendam and Bredasdorp had been affected. “There will be damage, but we haven’t been able to determine its extent yet,” he said. This was confirmed by Lusse, who said that the unseasonal rain had caused widespread damage to grain crops, but the exact extent of the damage would be known only in early November.
