  • Does Malawi export soybean oil?
  • exports. Malawi is a non-exporte r of soybean oil having only exported 581 metric tons between 2003 and 2017, or 36 metric tons per year. In 2003, imports supplied 62% of Malawi’s soybean oil needs, while domestic crush supplied 38%. Volumes amounted to about 8,000 metric tons of domestic supply and 12,000 of imports.
  • Who is an adopter of improved soybean varieties in Malawi?
  • In this study, we define an adopter as any soybean grower who planted at least one of the four improved soybean varieties (Tikolore, Mackwacha, Nasoko and Serenade) using double row spacing in 2016/2017 cropping season. Tikolore, Mackwacha, Nasoko and Serenade are the major improved soybean varieties grown in Malawi.
  • How to increase soybean yields in Malawi?
  • In a major effort to increase soybean yields in Malawi, national and international research and extension efforts have focused on the development and dissemination of improved soybean varieties and complementary agronomic practices.
  • What soybeans are grown in Malawi?
  • Tikolore, Mackwacha, Nasoko and Serenade are the major improved soybean varieties grown in Malawi. Double row spacing is an agronomic practice that promotes two rows on the same ridge for optimum plant density compared to traditional farmer practice of planting one row per ridge.
  • Do improved soybean technologies improve yields and incomes?
  • We examine the adoption and impacts of improved soybean technologies. Over a third of the households adopted improved soybean varieties and agronomic practices. Adoption is positively associated with yields and incomes. Greater adoption requires increased access to modern inputs and extension services.
