Drought Tolerant Maize Seeds Distributed to Malawian Farmers

Peacock Seeds on Wednesday distributed Peacock MH30 drought tolerant hybrid maize seeds to over 500 farmers to enable them appreciate the seeds’ potency under irrigation and rain fed production.

The farmers who were delegates to the Farmers Union of Malawi (FUM) Annual Congress included commercial farmers, members of farmers’ cooperatives, small scale farmers and members of Farmers Union at district level.

Speaking in an interview, Peacock Seed Managing Director Felix Jumbe said as a farmer himself he knows how some local farmers hassle to get improved seed varieties especially those under the Peacock Seeds brand.
