A play that will soon be put on for rural people and policy-makers alike was performed in Maputo at the week-long dialogue on agriculture policy organised by the Food, Agriculture and Natural Resources Policy Analysis Network (FANRPAN).

		<description><![CDATA[Malawi has put an end to subsidy coupon fraud by using farmers to hand them out to those who really need them. Malawi’s food production programme has been praised as a huge success in Africa and earned that country’s president and his government the Food Agriculture Natural Resources and Policy Network’s (FANRPAN) inaugural Food Policy Award in 2008.
