Die opbrengs-bepaling per ha vir die Mpumalanga provinsie is gebaseer op wetenskaplike en objektiewe resultate verstrek deur die LNR. Neem kennis dat die objektiewe resultate vir die Vrystaat en Noordwes provinsies, in Mei 2025 gerapporteer sal word.
Ander somergewasse
Sonneblomsaad: Die produksieskatting vir sonneblomsaad is 742 800 ton, wat 3,60% of 27 700 ton minder is as die vorige skatting van 770 500 ton. Die oppervlakteskatting vir sonneblomsaad is 555 700 ha, terwyl die verwagte opbrengs 1,34 t/ha is.
Ander gewasse
Die produksieskatting van sojabone is verlaag met 2,47% of 58 950 ton, van 2,390 miljoen ton na 2,331 miljoen ton. Die geskatte oppervlakte beplant van sojabone is 1,151 miljoen ha, met 'n verwagte opbrengs van 2,03 t/ha.
Die verwagte grondbone-oes is op 64 595 ton gestel, wat 3,49% of 2 334 ton minder is as die vorige skatting van 66 929 ton. Vir grondbone is die oppervlakteskatting 48 125 ha, terwyl die verwagte opbrengs 1,34 t/ha is.

The area planted to maize in the non-commercial agricultural sector is estimated at 358 000 ha, which represents an increase of 3,17%, compared to the 347 000 ha of the previous season. The expected maize crop for this sector is 621 500 tons, which is 8,09% more than the 575 000 tons of last season. It is important to note that about 46,75% of the maize produced in the non-commercial sector, is planted in the Eastern Cape, followed by KwaZulu-Natal with 20,88% and then Limpopo with 20,65%.
Die voorlopige oppervlakte beplant met mielies in die nie-kommersiële landbou-sektor word geskat op 358 000 ha, wat 'n toename van 3,17% verteenwoordig in vergelyking met die 347 000 ha van die vorige seisoen. Die verwagte mielie-oes van dié sektor is 621 500 ton, wat 8,09% meer is as die 575 000 ton van die vorige seisoen. Dit is belangrik om daarop te let dat ongeveer 46,75% van die mielies wat geproduseer word in die nie-kommersiële sektor, in die Oos-Kaap geplant word, gevolg deur KwaZulu-Natal met 20,88% en dan Limpopo met 20,65%.
