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 increased by 32 percent in February as a result of a similar decrease in the value of Malawi Kwacha on the informal market.
- Maize prices were lowest in the Northern region, where informal imports from Tanzania enter the country, and increased southward.
- At the market exchange rate, retail prices of maize in Malawi were similar to those in Zambia and Mozambique, but lower than in Zimbabwe.
