    Opis:
    Potassium (K) response curves were generated for some Malawi soils using four different rates of potassium fertilizer, with grass being used to estimate plant availability. The study was conducted to find the point of maximum response for potassium. The soils were characterized, limed and fertilized with equal amounts of nitrogen. Potassium was applied at four rates: 0.0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 me K/100 cm3 soil. The K treated soils were put in pots and cropped with grass. The grass was harvested six weeks after planting, dried and weighed. In general, addition of potassium resulted in increased growth of grass in all soils, with some soils showing better response than others. For montmorillonitic soils and soils with mixed mineralogy response was linear up to the highest rate of 0.4 me K/100 cm3. Apparently the 0.4 me K/100 cm3 soil was not enough to give maximum yield for these potassium depleted soils. For the kaolinitic soils 0.4 me K/100 cm3 soil was beyond point of maximum response. The variation of response to added potassium in the different soils calls for soil specific fertilizer additions. Smallholder farmers should move from blanket (crop specific) fertilizer recommendations currently being used to crop and soil specific fertilizer recommendations. Basal fertilizer dressings (starter packs) should always contain potassium. Correlation and calibration studies should be conducted to establish a potassium low optimum level for Malawi soils.

    Opis:
    This research assessed the local community’s participation in protected area-based tourism planning at Majete Wildlife Reserve in Malawi. The assessment was based on the participatory planning elements from the community participation framework for protected area-based tourism planning. A qualitative research approach was applied, and both secondary and primary data sources were used. Content analysis was used to analyse the data. Results show that the reserve has a system that allows continuous local community participation in the planning process, with financial resources committed to support the process. Local people are represented by independent community-based organisations and traditional leaders during the planning processes. But the local communities have limited access to tourism information and tourism planning experts. The reserve also lacks an appropriate decision-making structure that can facilitate efficient flow of management decisions to local communities. There is need to empower local people and regard them as partners in the tourism planning processes so that they can influence decisions.

    Opis:
    This paper examined the determinants of household food insufficiency coping strategies based on secondary data collected from 12,480 randomly selected households in Malawi. In response to food insufficiency, households employed the following coping strategies: relying on less preferred food options, reducing the proportion of meals, reducing the number of meals per day, restricting adult consumption for small children to eat, and borrowing food from family or friends. To assess the determinants of food insufficiency coping strategies, a multivariate probit model was employed. Education level, household size, livestock ownership and place of residence were some of the important factors that affected the choice of the coping strategies. The paper recommends policies that aim at strengthening the education system of the rural communities to equip them with skills they can use diversify their livelihood sources.

    Opis:
    This paper presents a small case study based on the narratives of three women in Malawi to ascertain how they negotiate female identity in a changing world. The socio-historical context is that western discourses relating to women’s empowerment and gender equalities are being absorbed in developing countries which can influence people’s perceptions of the way they view themselves and their own practices. This may present a conflict between western and traditional expectations and values. In Malawi, new opportunities are starting to open up for women causing them to adapt to new life styles. Close study of the ways in which women of different generations and of different socio economic backgrounds recount their experience of being a woman in Malawi seems to reveal common themes both in the structure and in the content of the narratives which connect what are in fact richly individual and personal stories. In line with Bamberg (2003:222) ‘rather than seeing narratives as intrinsically oriented toward coherence and authenticity, and inconsistencies and equivocations as an analytical nuisance’, this micro analysis finds the latter aspects to be the most interesting. Therefore, it will aim to unpack how participants orient to, ascribe and negotiate female identity through language. In recent years, narrative analysis has been used to examine real life stories. In this study, an ethnographic approach to data collection is adopted by interviewing women in the home environment. The recordings analysed are stories but they are elicited in the context of an interview which inevitably produces the ‘researcher effect’. Further work is needed to assess the value of narrative analysis in gauging the impact of western cultures on gender identity construction.
    Artykuł stanowi niewielkie studium przypadku opartego na opowieściach trzech kobiet żyjących w Malawi. Ma na celu ukazanie ich poszukiwań kobiecej tożsamości w zmieniającym się świecie. W krajach rozwijających się kontekst socjologiczny i historyczny pozostaje pod głębokim wpływem dyskursu toczącego się w krajach zachodnich o równouprawnieniu kobiet i równości płci, co może mieć istotne znaczenie w postrzeganiu samego siebie oraz własnych zachowań. Może to rodzić konflikt pomiędzy kulturą zachodu a przyjętą tradycją i wartościami. W Malawi otwierają się dla kobiet nowe możliwości, które pozwalają im zaadoptować się do nowego stylu życia. Dogłębne studium tego jak kobiety różnych pokoleń oraz z różnych warstw sołpołecznych w Malawi przedstawiają swoje doświadczenia, prowadzi do wysunięcia wspólnych wniosków w odniesieniu zarówno do struktury jak i tematów ich opowieści, które stanowią bogaty obraz osobistych przeżyć. Idąc za Bambergiem, kluczowym punktem zainteresowania analizy jest pogląd, iż opowieść nie jest nieodłącznie spójna i prawdziwa, lecz skłania się ku względnej niezgodności, dwuznaczności jak i złożonej niedogodności. Głównym zamierzeniem jest więc ukazanie jak kobieca tożsamość przejawia się poprzez język. W ostatnich latach analiza narracyjna jest źródłem wielu badań historii życia codziennego. Niniejsze studium oparte jest na podejściu etnograficznym. Bazuje na materiale zgromadzonym podczas rozmów z kobietami przebywającymi w ich środowisku domowym. Źródłem badań są więc opowiedziane historie, przy czym forma wywiadu pozwoliła nadać im wymiar naukowy. Należy podjąć dalszą analizę, która pozwoli ocenic wartość przeprowadzonych badań w zakresie wpływu kultury zachodniej na strukturę tożsamości płci.

    Opis:
    A snapshot survey was conducted to assess ground and surface water contamination by atrazine and metolachlor in the Zomba/Bvumbwe region. Ground and surface water samples were collected and their atrazine and metolachlor were extracted using ethyl acetate. The extracts were cleaned up using florisil, concentrated on a rotary evaporator and detected using thin layer chromatography. No herbicide residue was detected in the groundwater samples. In surface water samples atrazine was detected in 38% and metolachlor was detected in 15% of the samples. The concentrations of the herbicides were at their highest soon after the first run off event after herbicide application. The concentrations, however were generally below the World Health Organization's (WHO's) recommended maximum guideline values (2?g/ml atrazine and 10?g/ml) metolachlor). Following the first run off event concentrations of herbicides steadily decreased with time, decreasing to zero within eight weeks of herbicide application at 37% of the water sampling points that had herbicide contamination. Light soaking rains, higher clay content, flat land, longer distance between agricultural land and surface water body (filtering area), lower herbicide application rates and herbicide incorporation seemed to reduce herbicide export to surface water. Based on the study it is recommended that regular monitoring of pesticides in water should be done and that quantification of the pesticides should be done more accurately using a gas or liquid chromatograph with appropriate detectors. It is also recommended to follow good land husbandry practices to reduce export of pesticides to surface water bodies.

    Opis:
    Aim: Despite the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to reduce climate change vulnerability and inequality particularly in the Global South, it is probable that the SDGs and NDCs might not achieve their objectives. The aim of this article is to identify how countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) can address their climate change governance and cross-sector coordination challenges in order to reduce climate change vulnerability and augment SDG 7 (universal energy access) implementation.   Design / Research methods: A qualitative content analysis was undertaken using research articles, project reports, a case study and policy briefs exploring the nexus of climate change governance, SDG 7 implementation and SDG 13 implementation in the context of SSA and Malawi.   Conclusions / findings: The study suggests that climate change governance and attaining SDG 7 in the Global South might be improved by harmonising NDC activities so that NDC activities can be aggregated and monitored from a regional perspective similar to the case of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Programmes of Activities (PoAs).   Originality / value of the article: The paper is of value to global policy makers as it shows that increasing climate change ambitions and ratcheting-up in the context of SSA should include increasing the deployment of renewable energy technologies as well as initiating new international institutional arrangements for climate change governance through South-South Climate Change Cooperation modalities. Keywords: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), climate finance, renewable energy, South-South Climate Change Cooperation, Sustainable Development, Malawi. JEL: G38, O13, O55, Q01, Q28, Q54, Q56.

    Opis:
    The limited availability of data on faecal sludge characteristics remains one of the major challenges faced by developing countries in proper management of faecal sludge. In view of the limited financial resources and expertise in these developing countries, there is a need to come up with less-resource-intensive approaches for faecal sludge characterisation. Despite being used substantially in wastewater, there is limited evidence on the use of predictive modelling as a tool for cost-effective characterisation of faecal sludge. In this study, first order multiple linear regression modelling is investigated as a less-resource-intensive approach for accurate prediction of organics (biochemical oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand) in pit latrine sludge. The predictor variables explored in the modelling include pH, electrical conductivity, total solids, total volatile solids, fixed solids and moisture content. The modelling uses data collected from 80 latrines in unplanned settlements of four cities in Malawi. The study shows that it is possible to reliably predict chemical oxygen demand and biochemical oxygen demand in pit latrine sludge using electrical conductivity and total solids, which require low levels of resources and expertise to determine.
