This past weekend I proof read a friend's article which looked at how trade unions have embraced technology (or not). It was fascinating reading as these bodies often see their prime purpose as bargaining over wages.
Technology is a vital factor for social organisations like trade unions within a country, but also for countries themselves, especially since we are all part of the "global village" (farmers in a rural area of the Free State or Mpumalanga are affected by the weather in the USA or Australia!)
Technology is covered in The Agri Handbook in chapters like ICT and agricultural media, and there are references to it in others like Animal improvement & breeders; Tractors, combines & balers; Research & development and Precision farming.
This was the initial blog of The Agri Handbook, South Africa's biennial reference book for the agri-food industry where you will find points of reference for all subsectors which make up the agricultural value chain. Whether you are a new farmer looking at your options or an old hand wanting to diversify your operations but wondering where to start, you will find value here. Visitors are invited to also look at https://agribook.co.za/ where the latest chapters may be read.
