Balaka farmers fight for a better implementation of AIP
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Some smallholder farmers in Balaka district have joined calls to revise the implementation of the Affordable Inputs Programme-AIP, arguing the current set up is punitive and a recipe for hunger among benefiting households.

A local farmer, Magret Jonas claims farm inputs are mostly easily accessible to vendors and chiefs than ordinarily farmers thereby making many vulnerable to food shortages.
