What happened

The High Court of Malawi discharged an injunction that had previously prevented the Malawi Agricultural and Industrial Investment Corporation from recovering overdue loans from mega farmers. This ruling allows the corporation to resume recovery efforts for public funds. MAIIC has since directed beneficiaries of the Mega Farms program to deliver their maize to designated depots by November 22, 2026, to meet their loan repayment obligations.
