submitted when the Strategic Risk Register for 2017/18 is approved.

26


• GOVERNANCE AND ADMINISTRATION

oAn external quality assurance review (QAR) was conducted on the internal audit function

and the internal audit function received a General Compliance (GC) rating. This is the

highest rating that an internal audit unit can achieve in a QAR.

• STRENGTHENING INTERGRATED PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT

oThe MPAT 2016 challenge phase which closed on the 10th February 2017 indicated a

slight improvement in most of the Key Performance Areas. DAFF has developed

improvement plans per KPA to address the variances.

• STAKEHOLDER AND INTER-GOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS

oKey Strategic engagements for the quarter under review took place as follows:

Facilitation and Coordination of MINTECH was held on 16 February 2017.

The Amathole District Municipality Intergovernmental Technical Planning Forum

meeting was held on 09 March 2017.

Minister's Service Delivery Forum was held on the 3rd March 2017 at St George’s

Hotel, Irene, Gauteng.

27


• ACCESS TO MARKET: SMALLHOLDERS

oOne farm was certified through South Africa Good Agricultural Practices (SA-GAP) to enable

market access. The SA-GAP certification programme aims to improve participation of

smallholder producers in the mainstream agricultural economy by ensuring compliance to

minimum food safety and quality standards required by commercial mainstream markets

products.

• PLANT PRODUCTION AND HEALTH

oBased on the current and previous surveillance information, the plant pest surveillance for exotic

fruit flies is absent in the Northern Cape (NC), Eastern Cape (EC) and Western Cape (EC). One

specimen was detected and confirmed in Free State (FS) and delimiting survey will be

conducted, However, this pest is present and subject to official control in Limpopo (LP),

Mpumalanga (MP), North West (NW), Gauteng (GP) and in Kwa-Zulu Natal (KZN).

28


• LEGISLATIVE WORK

o The following Bills were submitted to the Minister for Cabinet approval:

Agriculture Produce Agents Amendment Bill.

Agricultural Product Standards Amendment Bill.

National Veld and Forest Fire Amendment Bill.

• CLIMATE CHANGE

o The Climate Change Plan has been implemented through vulnerability mapping for

conventional Farming system and the report on implementation was compiled. The

main aim of the plan is to minimize the risks and vulnerabilities associated with climate

change by increasing the resilience of production systems (adaptation), reduce the

greenhouse gas emissions (mitigation) in the sector and ensure food security.

29


• FORESTRY AND LAND REHABILITATION

oDraft Forestry Grant Fund Framework has been developed.

o The Agro-forestry Strategy framework with implementation plan was approved by EXCO.

oDiscussion document on the Reducing Emissions from forests Degradation and

Deforestation Plus (REDD+) has been developed.

oA Project to support revitalization of irrigation schemes has been implemented.

Revitalization of irrigation scheme focuses on the upgrading and development of the

infrastructure thus maximising the economic feasibility of the scheme.

• FISHERIES MANAGEMENT

oProgress report on the continuous conditioning of brood stock was compiled. The

conditioning of brood stock is based on 2 new research studies on genetics and nutrition for

aquaculture species. Broodstock is a parent stock used for breeding. They are usually

collected from the wild i.e. sea/rivers etc. Their ovum and sperm are fused to give offspring

that are grown out to size in aquaculture facilities.

oPermit Conditions were reviewed and permits and licences were issued in the 6 fishing

sectors (Tuna & Swordfish Longline, Kwa-Zulu Natal Beach Seine, Net Fish, Seaweed,

Horse Mackerel, and Patagonian Tooth Fish).

morphological and molecular identification of caterpillars and adult moths. To date, the pest

has been reported in LP, GP, NW, MP, KZN, EC, FS and NC. DAFF also focused on

emergency pesticides to ensure that the pesticides are available to deal with the pest.

These pesticides have various modes of action on the pests, so could support control in

variety of circumstances.

32

EMERGING ISSUES

COMMERCIALISATION OF BLACK FARMERS

oA draft Commercialisation document and programme is being developed and will be

presented to the executive for approval. The programme is to address the

commercialisation of 450 farmers (50 per province).

NATIONAL POLICY ON COMPREHENSIVE PRODUCER DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT

o The National Policy on Comprehensive Producer Development Support (NPCPDS) has

been approved by EXCO for further consultation with intergovernmental structure.

33

NON–COMMERCIAL MAIZE PRODUCTION TREND

o It should be noted that whilst DAFF validated about 41 028 ha cultivated for production, the

CEC shows that the area planted for maize in the non-commercial sector (smallholder &

subsistence) is estimated at 366 650 ha.

34

EMERGING ISSUES

BIENNIAL REVIEW REPORT

o In June 2014, the African Union (AU) Heads of State and Government adopted the Malabo

Declaration on Accelerated Agriculture Growth and Transformation for Shared Prosperity

and Improved Livelihoods which states the 2025 vision and goals for Africa Agriculture

Transformation.

o In implementing the 2014 CAADP Malabo Declaration through mutual accountability and

biennial review process; DAFF is currently preparing the 2017 Biennial Review (BR) Report

for the January 2018 AU Assembly. The BR Awareness was made to various stakeholders

and departmental management for the preparation of data collection process relating to the

seven (7) performance themes identified by the AU Commission.

o The seven performance themes identified by AUC are; (1) Commitment to CAADP Process,

Investment Finance in Agriculture, (3) Ending Hunger, (4) Eradicating Poverty through

Agriculture, (5) Intra-African Trade in Agriculture Commodities and Services, (6) Resilience

to Climate Variability and (7) Mutual Accountability and Results.

28 April 2017; is currently collecting data for the analysis and preparation of the BR report.

oA validation workshop will be held with all stakeholders once the process has been

concluded; for the finalisation and approval of the report.

35

EMERGING ISSUES

HIGHLY PATHOGENIC AVIAN INFLUENZA

o The presence of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) virus has been confirmed in

commercial poultry in South Africa on 22 June 2017.

o This is the first outbreak of HPAI in chickens in the country.

o Four outbreaks have been confirmed on commercial poultry farms as follows:

A breeder flock close to Villiers within Mpumalanga Province.

A layer farm in Val within Mpumalanga Province.

A layer farm in the south of Johannesburg, Gauteng Province.

A layer farm close to Leandra within Mpumalanga Province.

o H5N8 Avian Influenza (AI) was also confirmed in wild birds at two locations; one within

Mpumalanga Province and one within Gauteng Province.

o The effect on the poultry industry is potentially devastating.

o In order to improve traceability, measures have been put in place to register buyers and

sellers of more than 5 live chickens for any purpose other than direct slaughter at a registered

abattoir.

36

EMERGING ISSUES

DROUGHT

o The National Treasury, through the National Disaster Management Centre, made an amount

of R212 million available to assist farmers in mitigating drought induced risks.

o The Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF) consulted with the National

Treasury with regards to how the funds would be spent/ utilised effectively.

o It was agreed that an indirect grant would be created allowing the DAFF to spend the funds

on behalf of the affected provinces.

oOut of this allocation, an amount of R4 million was set aside for operational costs. Table 1
