‘Maize price remains low’ (Times)

July 20, 2021


Times (Malawi) published an article on the current prices of maize in Malawi. According to IFPRI’s Monthly Maize Market Report shows that fewer than 10 percent of farmers who sold maize in May had their commodity bought at the government-set minimum price. The trends follow a similar movement from March to April, where the average ‘new’ maize price was seen at K35 per kg while ‘old’ maize was trading at K89 per kg.
