December 2009 Agrifica Newsletter no4
Too soon this year has come to its end and now the festive season lies ahead
As agricultural people we know how dependent we are on nature and what it means to sing with nature when she produces an abundant crop of food. We also know what awe we experience when, on a pitch-dark night, we gaze up into the heavens and see the myriads of stars and planets and can then only exclaim: "My God how great Thou art!"
We wish you who read this, a deeply Blessed Christmas and much Joy now and throughout 2010.

Current food security conditions are favourable across the Southern African region with most staple foods being readily available and accessible from own production and the local markets. Prices for the main staple foods continue to drop as the harvest progresses. FEWS NET Southern Africa, June 2010
Like anti-globalisation activism, the fair trade movement is not a clearly defined and demarcated group. While it is now spearheaded and institutionalised by number of recognised organisations, it remains a concept of alternative trade to the benefit of all as opposed to the bottom-line approach of free trade to the benefit of a few.
