The Times (Malawi) published an article on the status of maize prices in Malawi. An agricultural expert, Tamani Nkhono Mvula, has projected continued stability in maize prices in the short-term as some vendors appear to have released the grain they were hoarding. Maize prices have been stable in most parts of the country the past two months, ranging between K10, 000 and K11, 000 per 50 kilogramme (Kg) bag. In September, IFPRI indicated that the prices went up by six percent K180 per kg, about 20 percent lower than in September 2019, but 25 percent higher than in September 2018.
