How agricultural subsidies are working in Malawi
This paper examines the role of fertiliser subsidies in Malawi, the world’s fifth poorest country. Malawians depend on domestic crops from over-cultivated soils. Recurrent poor harvests have had disastrous consequences for food security, but yields have improved significantly since the introduction of a government scheme to improve access to fertiliser by smallholder farmers.
