Abstract

Malawian folklore says that if you steal another farmer’s crop, your feet will freeze in his fi elds. You would have to wait there for all to know of your misdeed until your kinsmen came to free you by paying some form of compensation. It may have been as a result of stories such as these, or maybe it is because Malawians are by nature honest and friendly, but it used to be rare for crops to be stolen in this country – until this year when newspapers have started reporting stories of thieves reaping harvests that they did not sow.
