Malawi: The Warm Heart of Africa

Malawi is a small country that is smaller than Pennsylvania in central and southern Africa. It has a big lake covering most of the eastern border of the country. Lake Malawi is the third largest lake in Africa, and in some areas it has reached 3,000 feet deep. The climate is subtropical with rainy season and dry season. When discussing a country, Malawi is usually divided into three parts. Three different parts are located in the central part of Malawi, northern Malawi, the capital of Lilongwe.

Malawi is a "warm heart of Africa", known for its friendly people and lakes, which account for 20% of the country. As a large-scale agricultural country, 84% of Malawians live in rural areas and about 11 million people are engaged in small-scale self-sufficiency agriculture, but due to mountains, forests, rough meadows, land It is only one-third that is suitable for planting. Nevertheless, agriculture accounts for more than a third of GDP, accounting for 90% of exports. Small farmers donated 75% of the food and cultivated about 5.3 million hectares of cultivated land. Maize, cassava, sweet potato, rice, sorghum, peanuts, beans are important food crops. However, most farmers grow less than 1 hectare of food. Coupled with a decline in soil fertility and restrictions on access to credit and dissemination services, severely limits the productivity of small farmers.

A peaceful democratic republic like Malawi - a legendary lake of small country size known as "the warm heart of Africa", there are reasons why Scotland missionaries David Livingstone and slaves possess Negotiate about the trees - Traders who released slaves in the mid-nineteenth century - are there so many hungry people? The most obvious problem that became obvious for the first time was that the first world of tourists is the country's infrastructure shortage. Some of the major highways under construction are full of only a lot of mud. Pedestrians, cyclists, livestock are at risk in every aspect of every road. Fast moving cars are still ready to drop the unprocessed goat into the car with the speed down; the strike is like stealing food from the home table. Cities along the road link the wires along the road crop every few miles to supply power to the stores in the market. But the village we visited has no electricity.
