It seems even our first citizen have little or no impact on this gold leaf,its the leadership of this poor country that contributes to this sad system of
Marketing,why giving the buyers licenses to produce the crop?even an ordinary farmer knows the weakness of our government,bora iwo akunyauda ndi ndalama za alimi, but one day they shall be held accounterble.Remember these poor farmers crying voices are capable of bringing calamity on your lives,I mean u oppressors.

The title should have read POOR PRICES ONCE AGAIN CHARACTERISE THE OPENING OF TOBACCO SEASON.

In early 1990s low grade tobacco was selling not less than usd1.40. Over twenty years down the line when prices of inputs have more than quadrupled the price is down to usd 1.20. Comparable quality is fetching 3 to 4 usd in Zimbabwe. Why are Malawi an farmers being offered slave prices? Where is the role of the state. Why are the poor farmers who are greatly contributing to the survival of the economy being left on their own to face the unbalanced market system?
