Vendors buying maize at K50/kg (The Times – Business)

The Times (Malawi) published an article stating that farmers have sounded a fresh alarm over low prices some vendors are offering for maize in most markets in the country, where they are buying the commodity at as low as K50 per kilogramme (kg) or K2,500 per 50 kg bag. This also comes as a latest IFPRI-Malawi report shows that, in some markets, maize prices were 13 percent lower than the minimum price.
