Die afgelope paar weke se
beweging in graanpryse het weer die
belangrikheid van ‘n bemarkingsplan
uitgewys.
’n Bemarkingsplan moet dinamies
wees en moet toelaat dat daar
in hoër pryse gedeel kan word.
Bemarkingsbesluite moet op wins-
vlakke gegrond word, eerder as om vir
die hoogste moontlike prys te mik.
Opsies is van groot hulp om die
bogenoemde doelwitte te bereik.
Deur objektief en doelgerig aan die
mark deel te neem, kan ‘n produsent
homself in die mark posisioneer om
maksimum voordeel te trek uit die
geleenthede wat die mark bied.

Senwes het die nasie uitgedaag om op
Vrydag, 1 Februarie 2019 te braai om só
gehoor te gee aan AgriSA se oproep aan
alle Suid-Arikaners om die produsente se
probleme weg te braai.
‶ As elke Suid-Afrikaner 1kg meer
rooivleis eet, wis ons waarskynlik die
″
surplus uit.
