Zikometso Smallholder Farmers Association
| About us | Currently we are exporting our chili to Europe but we would like to widen the base. We are capable of producing 200 metric tonnes in one year. Our products can classified into three 1. Raw dry chili crop/fruit 2. Chili powder 3. Chili seed The proceeds and profits are directly transfered to member farmers so that their income is enhanced. Membership is close to seven thousand and each member grows the chili as individuals. The association comes in to supergrade the crop so that it is ready for export. We are located in the southern part of Malawi i.e Mulanje, Thyolo and Phalombe. Apart from crop production we also indulge into other development activities and gender, HIV/AIDS awareness issues. |
