Venture Capital and Private Equity firms poured tens of billions of dollars were poured into shares of farm equipment makers, fertilizer companies, and even indoor vertical farms and cropland. Conventional wisdom was that these were very safe investments that would yield outsized returns as the world struggled to feed itself over coming decades.

That investment thesis has now collapsed, amid plunging global food prices and soaring farm productivity. The ag sector of the developing world produced record crops, and did so without the expensive equipment produced by major Western farm equipment makers, such as John Deere and Case New Holland.

As VC and PE firms are now seeing double-digit annual declines in cash flows from their investments into the agriculture theme, we should expect them to sell their positions, and return to tech sector investment.

The MK Party will celebrate its first anniversary at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban in December. The party, which is eyeing the eThekwini Municipality in the upcoming local government elections, has recently welcomed ANC and EFF members to its ranks.

Secretary-general Floyd Shivambu says the MKP is not a Zulu nationalist party but a national liberation movement seeking to liberate South Africa. "That is why it got to contest elections in all the nine provinces," he
adds.

Political analyst and Tshwane University of Technology lecturer Dr
Levy Ndou says one of the reasons that will make South Africans
interested in the public spats between the EFF and the MK Party is
that many never expected the party to poach prominent members from the
EFF.

Ndou says initially the assumption was that the two will collaborate
and unseat the ANC as they both originate from it.
