South Africa Radio: Your Urban Ag News on the Go

You’re busy. You’re on the move. And you need the latest on urban farming in Africa. That’s where South Africa radio comes in – simple, reliable, and packed with stories you can hear while driving, weeding, or even sipping your morning coffee. No apps, no screens. Just clear, practical advice for your city farm.

Why Radio? It’s Simple, It’s Reliable

Think about it: most farmers and urban growers already listen to radio. It’s low-tech but high-impact. Our South Africa radio updates cover everything from the latest in rooftop gardens to how to sell your produce at the local market. You’ll hear about the best soil mixes for Cape Town’s dry spells, how Durban’s new community plots are doing, and tips straight from the field – all in under 15 minutes. Plus, it’s free! Just tune in on your car radio or smartphone during your morning commute. We’ve pulled the most useful stories from our site to bring you the perfect mix. For example, right now, we’re featuring:
  • ‘Easter Traffic Peaks: N3, N1, and N4 Set for Heavy Congestion’ – a must-listen if you’re hauling produce to the city. We break down the best routes and timing for on-time deliveries.
  • ‘Walsall Economy Faces Rising Child Poverty and Surging Business Closures’ – key takeaways for urban farmers selling at local markets.
  • ‘Aston Villa vs Tottenham: Lineups, Key Dynamics’ – because your weekend game might inspire your farm’s weekend hustle!

One listener, Thandi from Soweto, told us: ‘I started planting kale after hearing about it on the radio, and my sales jumped by 30%!’ We’re adding new stories every week. Next up: a special feature on how to use radio to track the best prices for your farm produce. So whether you’re a city farmer, a homesteader, or just starting out, South Africa radio puts the latest urban ag news right in your ears – where it’s easiest to remember and act on.
