Agricultural Products South Africa is Dependent on From Other Countries: South Africa relies on other countries for certain farm exports.

It relies on other countries for crucial food products such as wheat, rice, palm oil, sunflower oil and poultry" (South Africa’s farm exports are an economic lifeline – with weak spots). The reason for this dependence is that South Africa's agricultural sector is pretty weak.
