Agri SA believes South Africa needs a disaster, such as a drought, to force government to reflect on mining and food security, Beeld reported on Wednesday.
Rampant mining in South Africa was "eating the country's resources", Agri SA deputy president Theo de Jager reportedly said at the SA Water and Energy Forum's annual conference in Johannesburg.
Government would show its true colours if the country experienced a severe drought which threatened food security.
