  • Can old soybeans be used in Malawi?
  • For the most part from the processors perspective any old soybean will do. Soybeans are also self-pollinated so seed can be retained at the farm or village level with little if any genetic deterioration for several generations, which appears to be the case in Malawi. Soybeans are a leguminous crop that can fix nitrogen.
  • Is soybean a viable export agro-ecological crop in Malawi?
  • Domestic demand for soybean by the processing agro-industries (growing poultry and fish industries), is high. Thus soybean has a ready domestic and export market that is not fully exploited. Agronomic studies on soybean have shown that the crop is well adapted for production in all agro-ecological zones in Malawi.
  • How long does soybean oil last in Malawi?
  • In Malawi soybeans are primarily used full fat which raises concern for shelf life of the product before the oil becomes rancid. This was estimated at approximately one month, which is substantially better than rice bran which also contains 20% oil, but can go rancid in a matter of days.
  • Why is soybean production increasing in Malaw i?
  • Soybean production in Malaw i has had a sudden boost in the past 3-4 years as the global and local demand has continued to rise because of the versatility of these beans. Malawi is among the top 40 producers of soybean in the world according to Malawi Investment and Trade Centre. Soybean is rich in protein, vegetable oil and essential minerals.
