Green Investment Opportunities for Malawi’s Agricultural Sector

The population and economy of Malawi rely heavily on agriculture, which makes up 28% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP). The agri-culture sector is Malawi’s largest source of em-ployment (64%) and forms the basis of most Mala-wians’ livelihoods. Agricultural goods are over-whelmingly produced by Malawi’s smallholder farmers, with larger estates growing cash crops like tobacco, tea, sugar and coffee.
