The Times (Malawi) published an article on the status of maize prices in April. The article uses the IFPRI-Malawi data that show that the retail price of maize decreased by 4.7 percent in April.
This comes as the country is projected to have a bumper yield this year, thanks to the good rainfall pattern and the Affordable Input Programme implementation. This trend comes alongside a background of price drops in recent periods. Also published in Relief Web
