Descripción
Malawi was selected during the consultation phase as one of the four countries for an investment analysis case study. The objective of this country study was to investigate the main benefits arising from the Malawi Purchase for Progress (P4P) initiative and its impact on the beneficiaries, in particular those not documented by the programme’s monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system. This country case study indicates that overall P4P brought positive benefits to the smallholder farming community and resulted in the growth of ACE, as farmers recognized the value of the exchange. It should be noted that the P4P programme only targeted approximately two percent of Malawi's agricultural producers, thus any discourse in this paper should be seen in light of the limited scope and size of the pilot. Further to this, the mission only visited seven of the 30 WFP-affiliated FOs and two traders. Thus the findings are by no means representative of the total population that benefited from the P4P pr ogramme.
