Setting the Grassroots on Fire: The Case of Malawi.

Glenn Denning, The MDG Centre, P.O. Box 30677-00100, Nairobi, Kenya

Mwandama, Malawi, the third Millennium Village, has seen large maize production increases since the Project started. At the national level a 75% subsidy of fertilizer and hybrid seed helped thousands of farmers throughout the country. Dr. Denning will discuss the unique situation of Malawi and its lessons for the African Green Revolution.
