Earlier,Japanese Ambassador Shuichiro Nishioka said Malawi has best quality rice in the world and there is need to produce it in huge quantities because it can easily be exported.

“If I was asked to offer advice on what crop that can do well apart from tobacco, I would say that Malawi rice is very good. What is needed is just to increase production and then markets can be found outside” said Nishioka.

The factory has since assured farmers a chance to get a ready market for their rice and better prices of their product.
