One of the biggest beef producers in South Africa, Karan Beef has confirmed a case of foot and mouth disease outbreak at their Heidelberg facility in Gauteng.
An immediate suspension of cattle intake and exportation of beef has been put in place as a measure to curb the spread of this highly contagious disease.
To unpack what this will mean to red meat production and our country’s economy, we are joined by Senior Feedlot Veterinarian at Karan Beef, Dr. Dirk Verwoerd, and Thabile Nkunjana Senior Agricultural Economist for Trade Research at the National Agricultural Marketing Council (NAMC).

Whites are attacking the nation of South Africa with a new strategy because their white genocide agenda failed dismally. Wake up people of South Africa! We are being killed with unemployment and poverty. They are killing black South African systematically because their first world depends on the minerals, access and resources looted out of our country. South African sovereignty is what they are fighting against, they want us to be a dependent state forever begging them to survive. How can a rich country like ours beg countries with nothing? Time to stand up SA, there is no escaping the inevitable. The people who sacrificed their lives during the sharpeville massacre are the reason weโve made progress in our fight for freedom and sovereignty. Letโs stand up and take action so that our descendants have something to inherit.
