Malawi’s award-winning scientist: How Science Tech and Innovation can transform African agriculture
Can biotechnology transform Africa’s agriculture? Dr Abel Sefasi, Malawi’s 2023 OFAB Agri-Biotechnology champion and senior lecturer at LUANAR, believes it can-and shares how.
In this exclusive interview, Dr Sefasi explores the untapped potential of agricultural biotechnology in Africa. From drought-tolerant/insect protected maize, to pest resistant cotton and PBR cowpeas, he explains how science-backed innovations can drive food security, raise farm incomes, and grow Malawi’s agricultural GDP-already accounting for over 25% of the economy.
Dr Sefasi also shares real-world examples from across the continent and highlights key policy, research, and capacity-building efforts shaping Malawi’s biotech landscape.
