Farmers now also need to keep an eye on space weather

Modern agriculture, including in South Africa, has reached such a level of technological sophistication that it is now vulnerable to the effects of space weather, South African National Space Agency (SANSA) Space Weather Centre MD Dr Lee-Anne McKinnell pointed out to Engineering News Online on Thursday. Space weather refers to events on, or originating from, the Sun, such as solar flares, high energetic particle streams, and coronal mass ejections, which interact with the Earth’s magnetic field and affect modern human technologies. “Agriculture is vulnerable because of the development of ‘precision farming’,” she explained. “This is the use of technological aids in farming, such as the fitting of tractors and planters with navigation devices, allowing the planting of extra-straight rows, quickly and efficiently. These technological sensors are susceptible to adverse space weather, because they are dependent on satellite-based systems.”

Court declares AARTO Amendment Act unconstitutional

The High Court has declared the Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences (AARTO) Amendment Act, on which the planned demerit system for traffic offences is based, unconstitutional and invalid. The Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse (Outa) challenged the constitutional validity of AARTO and the AARTO Amendment Act, and asked the court in October last year to declare both the main Act and the amendment Act unconstitutional.
