Green Malawi ~ African Agricultural Progress...

The BBC's James Morgan writes a compelling series called Seeking Africa's green revolution about agricultural progress in Malawi in south-eastern Africa. Morgan writes...
From the begging bowl to the bread basket: in just two years, Malawi has gone from famine to food surplus -- a minor agricultural miracle. By applying a mixture of crop breeding, soil management, irrigation and diversification, agro-science experts are helping subsistence farmers to cope with climate change and buck the trend in neighbouring African countries.
