The drastic increase in soybean production and export has brought not only socioeconomic efects10,11, but also serious environmental consequences, as it has both directly and indirectly induced
A GUIDE TO SOYBEAN PRODUCTION IN MALAWI - Farmers Voice Africa
1.2 Soybean production trends in Malawi Agronomic studies on soybean have shown that the crop is well adapted for production in all agro-ecological zones in Malawi. However, soybean yields are still low as farmers obtain 800 kg/ha on average against the potential yield of 2000-2500 kg/ha. Development and promo-
In addition, soybean is a vital soil-fertility improvement crop used in crop rotations because of its ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen. To a large extent, soybean demand outweighs supply, with the deficit covered by imports. Soybean production in sub-Saharan Africa is expected to grow by over 2% per annum to meet the increasing demand.
Soybean Rust Threatens Soybean Production in Malawi and Zambia
A recent survey of over 1,000 farm households shows that 55% and 39% of farmers in Zambia and Malawi, respectively, were affected by soybean rust during the 2022–2023 season. The lack of rust-tolerant varieties makes production expensive for smallholder farmers who cannot afford to purchase fungicides to control the pathogens.
The world soybean production was projected at 311.1 million metric tons in 2020 and 371.3 million metric tons in 2030. The annual growth rates are 2.9% from 2005–07 to 2010 and were projected to be 2.5% from 2010 to 2020, and 1.8% from 2020 to 2030.
The poverty impacts of improved soybean technologies in Malawi
This paper estimated the poverty impacts of adopting improved soybean technologies using data from 1,234 households in six soybean growing districts accounting for over 80% of the total soybean production in the country. The results from an endogenous switching regression model showed that 32% of the sample households adopted improved soybean
Hence, from a complex coupled human–environment systems perspective, our results show that the environmental costs of soybean production (measured as land changes) in both local and adjacent

a soybean oil extraction plant (now under construction in Rwanda), with a capacity of 36 000 tonnes of oil per year, is expected to further increase the demand for soy-bean in the region (Rusike et al., 2013). In the past, a lack of links between producers and buy-ers in Tanzania resulted in production of soybean being abandoned.
1.2 Soybean production trends in Malawi. Agronomic studies on soybean have shown that the crop is well adapted for production in all. agro-ecological zones in Malawi. However, soybean yields are
- Why is the soybean industry growing in Malawi?
- The area under soybean production as well as productivity are increasing in Malawi due to government policies on value addition, domestic use and crop diversification. Consequently, there is a significant expansion of the soybean industry within Malawi and with substantial demand for export market.
- Which agro-ecological zones are adapted for soybean production in Malawi?
- The crop is well adapted for production in all agro-ecological zones in Malawi. However, soybean production is con-centrate in Lilongwe, Kasungu and Mzuzu Agricultural Developement Divisions (ADDs). Soybean consists of more than 36% protein, 30% carbohydrates, and excellent amounts of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
- Where does soybean grow in Malawi?
- The Plateau repre-sents three quarters of Malawi at elevations of 750-1300 masl. Although the major soy-bean production districts are concentrated in the plateau, soybean virtually grows well in all agricultural development divisions.
- Does Malawi export soybean oil?
- exports. Malawi is a non-exporte r of soybean oil having only exported 581 metric tons between 2003 and 2017, or 36 metric tons per year. In 2003, imports supplied 62% of Malawi¡¯s soybean oil needs, while domestic crush supplied 38%. Volumes amounted to about 8,000 metric tons of domestic supply and 12,000 of imports.
