%X There is a widespread decline in soil fertility in Malawi, and food security
is a pressing issue. The Guide to Agricultural Production published by
the Ministry of Agriculture (MOA 1991) provides guidelines to improve
productivity in a wide range of crops. This brochure is meant as a
complement to the Guide, for use by extension workers, NGO farm
advisors, and anyone interested in expanding the range of options for
farmers. It describes a number of low-cost options suitable for the
resource-poor smallholder farmer, who cannot always afford the
recommended fertilizer rates.
