Ngokokuhlaziywa kwenhlangano yezimboni enegunya, isimo sakamuva esibikwe uMnyango Wezolimo wase-US ngoDisemba sibonisa isidingo esiqhubekayo esintekenteke kulo lonke uchungechunge lokuhlinzekwa kwempahla, futhi igebe lokuhlinzekwa kwezidingo kanye nesidingo selinciphe lafinyelela kumabhala angu-811,000 kuphela (ukukhiqizwa kwamabhala ayizigidi ezingu-112.9 kanye 113.7 million amabhele ukusetshenziswa), okuyinto encane kakhulu kunangoSepthemba no-Okthoba.Ngaleso sikhathi, igebe lomhlaba wonke lokuhlinzekwa nokufunwa kwakulindeleke ukuba lidlule amaphakethe ayizigidi ezi-3 (izigidi ezingu-3.5 ngoSepthemba kanye nezigidi ezingu-3.2 ngo-Okthoba).Ukuncipha kwegebe phakathi kokuhlinzekwa kanye nesidingo kusho ukuthi ukwenyuka kwamanani kakotini kungase kwehle.

Ngaphezu kokuncishiswa kwegebe lokuhlinzeka nokufunwa komhlaba wonke, mhlawumbe okubaluleke kakhulu ekuqondeni kwamanani umbuzo oqhubekayo wesidingo.Kusukela ngoMeyi, isilinganiso se-USDA sokusetshenziswa kwefekthri yomhlaba wonke sehlile sisuka kumabhele ayizigidi eziyi-121.5 saya kumabhele ayizigidi eziyi-113.7 (ukwehla okunqwabelanayo kwamabhala ayizigidi ezingu-7.8 phakathi kukaMeyi noDisemba).Imibiko yakamuva yemboni iyaqhubeka nokuchaza isidingo esihamba kancane somfula kanye namamajini emishini eyinselele.Izibikezelo zokusetshenziswa kungenzeka zehle kakhulu ngaphambi kokuba isimo sokusetshenziswa sibe ngcono futhi sakhe phansi.

Ngaso leso sikhathi, ukuncipha kokukhiqizwa kukakotini emhlabeni wonke kwenze buthaka insalela kakotini yomhlaba wonke.Kusukela isibikezelo sokuqala se-USDA ngoMeyi, isibikezelo sokukhiqizwa kukakotini emhlabeni wonke sehlisiwe sisuka kumabhala ayizigidi eziyi-119.4 saya kumabhala ayizigidi eziyi-113.5 (ukwehla okuhlanganisiwe kwamabhala ayizigidi ezi-5.9 ngoMeyi-Disemba).Ukwehliswa kokukhiqizwa kukakotini emhlabeni wonke ngesikhathi sesidingo esibuthakathaka kungase kuvimbele amanani kakotini ukuba ehle kakhulu.

Imakethe kakotini akuyona yodwa imakethe yezolimo ehluphekayo.Uma kuqhathaniswa nonyaka odlule, intengo kakotini omusha yehle ngo-6% (intengo yamanje entsha yekusasa ikusasa le-ICE likaDisemba 2024).Amanani ommbila ehle kakhulu, okuphakamisa ukuthi ukotini ukhanga kakhulu uma kuqhathaniswa nalezi zitshalo eziqhudelanayo kunangonyaka odlule.Lokhu kusikisela ukuthi ukotini kufanele ukwazi ukugcina noma ukwandisa i-acreage yonyaka wezitshalo olandelayo.Kuhlanganiswe nokwenzeka kwezimo zokukhula ezithuthukisiwe ezindaweni ezifana nentshonalanga yeTexas (ukufika kwe-El Nino kusho umswakama owengeziwe), ukukhiqizwa komhlaba wonke kungakhula ngo-2024/25.

Phakathi kwamanje kuze kube sekupheleni kuka-2024/25, ukululama kwesidingo kulindeleke ukuthi kufinyelele ezingeni elithile.Kodwa-ke, uma ukunikezwa kanye nesidingo sesivuno sonyaka ozayo konke kuhamba ngendlela efanayo, ukukhiqizwa, ukusetshenziswa, nezitoko kungase kuqhubeke nokulinganisela, kusekela ukuzinza kwentengo.
