SA Graan/Grain is a specialist publication and official mouthpiece of Grain SA and is regarded as one of the leading agricultural publications in agriculture. This monthly magazine is available in print and online and has become a compass for the sustainable production of grain and oilseeds in South Africa.

Backed by Grain SA as a prominent grain producers organisation, our articles are written by prominent scientists, agricultural economists, experts from the industry and professional journalists.
