Food Security in the area
Cedara forms part of the 13 wards that make up the uMngeni Local Municipality. uMngeni Local Municipality is an administrative area in the uMgungundlovu District Municipality in KwaZulu-Natal. It is estimated that approximately 63.4% of the population in the uMgungundlovu District is living below the poverty line. Of this 63.4%, approximately 45.6% have no source of income and about 17.8% earn less than R400 per month. This has resulted in a high dependency ratio in the District with an associated high expenditure on social grants. It is for this reason that the Umgungundlovu District has been selected as part of the National Health Insurance (NHI) pilot programme.
