The conference follows on the successful, first conference hosted by the MRC in Durban in 2015. This second national gathering of the malaria community will again provide researchers the opportunity to showcase novel findings, innovation, ground breaking research and ongoing collaborative efforts towards malaria elimination. With malaria elimination a foreseeable possibility in South Africa an urgent need exists for fundamental- and applied research and surveillance in malaria endemic areas to eliminate the disease through the use of an integrated management approach, including safer and sustainable alternative malaria control methods. A major hindrance in realising the goal of elimination in South Africa is the cross-border impact of malaria from our neighbouring countries. We are therefore very excited to welcome delegates from our neighbouring and other SADC countries as well as international guests doing research in these countries. The conference will be co-hosted by the UP ISMC and the MRC Office of Malaria Research (MOMR). Over the three day-long conference scheduled from 31 July to 2 August 2016 you can look forward to 61 oral presentations, of which 12 are plenary presentations, and 67 posters focusing on all facets of malaria. This includes human interventions towards malaria control and elimination including malaria education; health promotion and surveillance; novel methods to control the parasite and block transmission; innovative and alternative vector control methods; the use of various technologies to predict potential outbreaks and also the impact of climate change (remote sensing) and even the use of mathematical modelling to determine the effectiveness of new control tools. The conference will take place at the Auditorium at the University of Pretoria Groenkloof Campus in Pretoria, South Africa. The Groenkloof Campus is the home of the University of Pretoria’s Faculty of Education. The number of registered delegates expected to attend the conference is around 230, providing students the opportunity to share their malaria-related research and at the same time learn from experts in their respective fields. The conference will aim to save on paper usage and therefore the conference booklet will be available as an interactive document on the conference website for downloading. Delegates will receive a complimentary memory stick (flash drive) that will also contain the booklet and delegates will have the opportunity to add additional material including photos to their memory stick. Some background information on the UP ISMC. The Institute is a fully integrated, multi-disciplinary, interdepartmental and interfaculty initiative. The aim of the Institute is to coordinate and promote collaborative research on safer and sustainable malaria control and management strategies, and to generate new knowledge and support new activities pertaining to safe malaria control in Africa through fundamental and applied research, supported by research collaboration with regional, national and international partners. The diverse group of researchers within the Institute encompasses all aspects of malaria with research clusters focusing on human health, parasite control and vector control. The establishment of the UP ISMC was approved by the University of Pretoria Senate on 2 June 2016. The Institute was 'upgraded' from the existing UP Centre for Sustainable Malaria Control (UP CSMC), and boasts five years of achievements reached. The UP ISMC is also the proud host of the SARChI Chair on Sustainable Malaria Control. Page 3 of 170 I wish to thank all our sponsors in advance for contributing towards the conference. Without your contribution this conference would not have been possible. To the delegates participating either through an oral presentation or poster, thank you for sharing your research with all attending the conference. To all the attending delegates a word of thanks for your interest and valuable contribution. I believe that the conference will be informative and create a platform for networking. The conference tea/coffee breaks, lunches and, Cocktail and Gala functions will allow ample time to mingle and share ideas. I trust you will enjoy the conference and the hospitality that the University of Pretoria has to offer.

A farm survey of small-scale sugarcane growers in Nkomazi, Mpumalanga province, South Africa. GDI Working Paper 2017- 018. Manchester: The University of Manchester. www.gdi.manchester.ac.uk This paper is part of a research project “Farm scale and viability: an assessment of black economic empowerment in sugar production in Mpumalanga Province, South Africa”, funded by the UK government ESRC-DFID Joint Programme on Poverty Alleviation. Grant no. ES/1034242/1 Abstract Against a context of declining sugar output in South Africa as a whole, the sugar industry in the Nkomazi Municipality of Mpumalanga Province has increased its share of the South African market. It has achieved this despite the transfer of at least 25 per cent of land growing sugarcane into black community ownership through South Africa’s land reform programme. The industry now claims that the majority of land used for sugar cane in Nkomazi is owned by the beneficiaries of land reform. This paper describes a survey of small-scale sugar-cane growers. It presents quantitative data that shows, on the one hand, a process of land concentration and ‘accumulation from below’, visible in the emergence of medium-scale growers, and, on the other hand, a move by the sugar milling company to take more direct control of sugarcane growing through rental agreements with small-scale land-owners.

  • A Smallgrower's Challenge to 'Emerge'
    A Smallgrower’s Challenge to ‘Emerge’ Exploring the diversity of evapotranspiration, biomass, yield production and crop water productivity of sugar cane in the Lower Komati sub-catchment, South Africa M.Sc. Thesis by G.M. ten Napel March 2009 Irrigation and Water Engineering Group A Smallgrower’s Challenge to ‘Emerge’ Exploring the diversity of evapotranspiration, biomass, yield production and crop water productivity of sugar cane in the Lower Komati sub-catchment, South Africa Master thesis Irrigation and Water Engineering submitted in partial fulfillment of the degree of Master of Science in International Land and Water Management at Wageningen University, the Netherlands G.M. ten Napel March 2009 Supervisors: Dr. Ir. Flip Wester Dr. Ir. Richard Soppe Dr. Ir. Gerardo van Halsema Irrigation and Water Engineering Group WaterWatch Centre for Water and Climate Remote Sensing Services Wageningen University Wageningen The Netherlands The Netherlands http://www.iwe.wur.nl http://www.waterwatch.nl ABSTRACT The Inkomati catchment is one of 19 Water Management Areas (WMAs) in South Africa bordering Mozambique and Swaziland. Within the Inkomati WMA, the Lower Komati sub- catchment is an area of intensive sugarcane farming. Historically, the area was reserved for large scale ‘white’ commercial farming, but since Apartheid came to an end in 1994, the South African government is aiming to redress the racial and gender inequities of the past. In 1994, the Nkomazi Irrigation Expansion Programme (NIEP) was started with the objective to promote economic development for the ‘black’ people in the area. 9,800ha of previously under utilized land was transformed into 1500 irrigated sugarcane farming ventures.
