The Monthly Maize Market Reports are developed by researchers at IFPRI Malawi, with the main goal of providing clear and accurate daily maize price data in selected markets throughout Malawi. The reports are intended as a resource for those interested in maize markets in Malawi, namely producers, traders, consumers, or other agricultural stakeholders.
Highlights

- Retail prices of maize in Malawi were similar to those elsewhere in the region except in Tanzania, where maize is considerably cheaper at both the official and market exchange rates, presenting an opportunity for imports.
