The Nation (Malawi) writes in a report that consumers are hopeful that maize prices will begin to fall once the government reopens the Agricultural Development and Marketing Corporation (Admarc) scheme. Maize prices in most the markets have jumped. December 1, with this reopening, offers a remedy to those prices. According to IFPRI-Malawi, maize prices increased by 23 percent to an average of K412 per kg in October and continued to sell at the highest price in the Southern Region.
