Agricultural Master Plan of the Free State Agricultural Research Council; FS-AMP steering committee The main focus of the services required by the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of the FS (FSDARD) was the development and implementation of a dynamic Agricultural Master Plan (AMP). This was to encompass identifying stakeholders and their roles, producing a comprehensive resource audit, identification of best practice land use options, identifying economic opportunities, a dynamic commodity analysis, and viable development projects and the creation of a project information library. All of these were required to inform the AMP, and were to be packaged into an integrated spatial agricultural planning system.

The influence of rainfall variation on performance of Bonsmara Beef Cattle in the Central Free State Mohlapo, TD; Van der Westhuizen, HC; Majola, SE; De Klerk, JD Approximately 80 % of agricultural land in South Africa is mainly suitable for extensive livestock farming. The Free State province is the third largest producer of beef in SA. It is believed that livestock production and productivities will be one of the most susceptible sectors to climate change (Mwiturubani, 2010).

The response of alate Diuraphis noxia (Kurdjumov) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) to volatile substances from four non-host plant extracts under laboratory conditions Richter, JM; Prinsloo, GJ; Van der Linde, TC Volatile compounds present in essential plant oils are known to influence insect behaviour. They are generally of low molecular weight, highly volatile, have a unique mode of action and are sometimes of low toxicity to non-target organisms. One example of a volatile compound extracted from a plant is methyl salicylate which is being used to reduce aphid infestation on barley in some European countries.
