South Africa's Drought Stricken Sugar Production

The worst drought to affect South Africa in the last century is further damaging the economic strength of the county's sugar sector. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, South Africa was expected to harvest 1.61 million metric tons of sugar during the 2016/2017 marketing year, a decrease of 5.5 percent from the previous marketing year and the lowest marketed-yield since 1995. Sugar producers are already grappling with competition from cheap imports, forcing some mills to remain closed and reducing employment in the sector.Note: Precipitation amounts less than 0.5 mm have been replaced with "0" values.

South Africa’s Retail Inflation Declines to Lowest in October since 2011 //jp.knoema.com/dugudnb/south-africa-s-retail-inflation-declines-to-lowest-in-october-since-2011 2019-11-28T06:58:46Z Nematullah Khan jp.knoema.com://jp.knoema.com/user/1975840
South Africa’s Retail Inflation Declines to Lowest in October since 2011

South Africa's headline inflation recorded 3.76 percent YoY in October as compared to 4.1 percent growth in September 2019, largely dragged down by petrol prices. While, on monthly basis it remained flat. This was the lowest print since February 2011. The current decline has pushed the inflation towards lower band of South African Reserve Bank’s (SARB) target band of 3–6 percent. Despite the lower inflation, reasonably stable currency and subdued consumer confidence and demand. The Monetary policy committee (MPC) of SARB kept the policy rate unchanged at 6.5 percent in November 2019. As per MPC observation, the retail inflation is expected to peak at 5.3 percent in the Q1 2020 and settle at 4.5 percent in Q4 2021.

South Africa: Economic Performance and Outlook

The South African economy exhibited weak quarter-on-quarter real GDP growth earlier this year and faces high and rising unemployment, weak domestic demand, and falling market prices on key export commodities. Accelerated growth is on the horizon for South Africa, however, according to consensus forecasts of multiple major international agencies, even if at a slower rate than other large sub-saharan African economies. African countries collectively are expected to be the most rapidly growing economies worldwide during the next five years.South Africa is currently the third largest African economy by GDP (ppp) following Nigeria and Egypt and is expected to grow at an average rate of 1.6 percent during each of the next five years.In contrast, Nigeria, the continent's largest economy, has an expected annual average rate of 1.96 percent during the same period, according to the IMF. It will be interesting to monitor South Africa's official growth statistics through the end of the year. During the period 2012-2014, the South African economy followed this same growth pattern, but expectations of the major international agencies were too high, based on analysis from Knoema's Forecast Tracking Tool. The World Bank, IMF and OECD consistently overestimated South Africa's real GDP growth by 0.6 to 2.0 percentage points since 2011.
