Register of Directly Affected Groups

Annually, the NAMC updates its Register of Directly Affected Groups (DAG’s). for each commodity in the agricultural sector. A directly affected group means any group of persons, which is party to the production, sale, purchase, processing or consumption of an agricultural product and includes labour employed in the production or processing of such a product.

The register is inter alia being used to bring applications for statutory measures, (interventions in the agricultural sector in terms of the MAP Act) to the attention of directly affected groups and to invite such directly affected groups to lodge any objections or representations relating to such a request to the NAMC within a specified time. The viewpoints of directly affected groups are incorporated in the NAMC’s recommendations to the Minister of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development.
