Methodology This report provides an overview of the tourism trends and patterns in the Weskus. The findings will illustrate key visitor trends obtained from the regional visitor tracking survey. Responses to the regional visitor tracking surveys are used as a proxy to indicate the key trends within the Western Cape and the various regions. It is important to note that absolute figures cannot be determined from these surveys, as the survey responses are a sample of the tourists into the respective tourism offices across the Western Cape, and would thus represent a sample of the visitors. Therefore, where statistically relevant absolute numbers may be given, however, a share is provided to indicate the trend. This is based on international best practice in the use of surveys within the tourism industry for determining key trends. Definition: Tourist: refers to any visitor travelling to a place other than that of his/her own environment for more than one night, but less than 12 months and for whom the main purpose of the trip is other than the exercise of an activity remunerated for from within the place visited.

  • Final Provincial Drought Assessment Report.Pdf
    Jody Wentzel Directorate Sustainable Resource Management Email: [email protected] tel: +27 21 808 7805 fax: +27 21 808 5370 Reference: 20/2/Drought Assessment Report - Western Cape (2018) Annexure A: Drought assessment report for disaster relief funding for the drought-stricken areas of livestock and crop farming in the Western Cape Province – February 2018 1. AIM To perform a technical and scientific assessment for the provision of emergency fodder relief within the drought-stricken areas of the Western Cape. 2. INTRODUCTION Drought relief, in the form of fodder, is currently being provided to all qualifying farmers in the West Coast district , Cape Winelands district, Central Karoo district, parts of the Eden district and Overberg district. All these areas need assistance. The consequence of the current situation is that once the drought has been broken, farmers will have to build up their flocks, leading to negative cash flow for a considerable period of time. If government does not intervene to further alleviate the situation, the dire impact of the drought will be felt for years to come, especially in the rural areas, where agriculture is the main generator of the economy. The socio-economic impact on farm workers would be significant should the agricultural activity in the Western Cape collapse. Areas of the Central Karoo district and West Coast district municipality are in a critical drought situation. Livestock farmers are amongst the hardest hit by the drought. The impacts of the drought in the summer rainfall region on beef cattle herds, with high numbers of animals slaughtered and the supply subsequently becoming limited, has led to high meat prices.
