verswak. Die impak van die waardevermindering kan gesien word wan-
neer internasionale dollar-pryse na rand omgeskakel word, wat beteken
dat stygings groter was as in dollar-terme.
Tabel 5
toon die internasionale pryse van insekdoders wat ook
op mielies gebruik word (dollar- en rand-terme). Lambda-sihalotrien
en karbofuraan toon albei beduidende stygings van 79,1% en 25,2%
onderskeidelik, terwyl imidaklopried en deltametrien met 1,6% en 5,1%
onderskeidelik gedaal het. Internasionale pryse in rand-terme illustreer
die uitwerking van die verswakking van die wisselkoers.

JAARLIKSE VERGADERING MET DIE
GEWASBESKERMINGSBEDRYF
Op 30 Julie 2018 het Graan SA se Produksie/inset-werkgroep met
CropLife vergader, en die volgende sake is bespreek:
Marktendense in die graanbedryf en produksiekoste vir die
2018/2019-mielieproduksieseisoen.
Veranderinge by CropLife.
Die internasionale en plaaslike situasie in die landbouchemika-
lieëbedryf.
The impact of the depreciation can be seen when international dollar
prices are converted to rand, which meant that increases were more
than in dollar terms.
Table 5
shows international insecticide prices, which are also used
in maize (dollar and rand terms). Lambda-cyhalothrin and carbofuran
both show significant increases of 79,1% and 25,2%, respectively;
while imidacloprid and deltamethrin decreased by 1,6% and 5,1%,
respectively. International prices in rand terms illustrate the effect of
the weakening of the exchange rate.
ANNUAL MEETING WITH THE CROP PROTECTION
INDUSTRY
On 30 July 2018, Grain SA’s Production/Input Working Group met

Market trends in the grain industry and production costs for the
