The department stressed that PESI has not been implemented for the 2025/26 financial year, and therefore no vouchers have been issued — nor are any being distributed.

Farmers are cautioned not to engage with anyone attempting to sell or redeem expired PESI vouchers and to report suspicious approaches immediately through official departmental channels.
