President Dr. Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera has reiterated his administration’s commitment to fulfill its promise to end hunger and improve agricultural productivity through mechanization.
Chakwera described the launch of the Malawi Agricultural Mechanisation Initiative on Thursday as the beginning of the journey towards the fulfilment of the promise.

The Malawi leader therefore thanked the partnerships realised with the private sector – Pyxus Agriculture Malawi and Philip Morris International, who are giving local mechanised farming services to entrepreneurs.
