Abstract
96 words
This paper analyzes the marketing of legumes in Malawi with
special focus on the seed supply chain, the actors, activities,
and the business environment that the commodity goes through
as it moves from producers to buyers and consumers. The study
found that vendors/private traders usually came from major
cities to buy produce in small lots from farmers and mainly
used hanging scales. Prices were found to be variable within
season and between buyers. Analysis of the seed supply systems
indicated that there was mostly informal seed system where
farmers either used own-saved seed or seed exchanges.
