Welcome to Macadamia information center

The Highland Macadamia Cooperative Union Limited (HIMACUL) represents smallholder macadamia growers in Malawi. With 3800 members spread out all over the country and partners in other countries too we have gone about setting up an area where information and news can be posted and commented on.

Smallholder macadamia groups are throughout the country in Mulanje, Neno, Mwanza, Dowa, Ntchisi and Rumphi. Through investing in cooperatives and associations the annual establishment has risen to 70,000 trees a year and over 1000 Ha is currently under smallholder management in the country. The majority of this crop has been established in the last 4 years. Kernel volumes are at present small but will grow significantly as this crop matures.

Macadamia Industry Strategic Plan Workshop

A Macadamia Industry Strategic Plan Workshop will be held at Thyolo Sports Club on the 10th November 2011.

Over 40 stakeholders have been invited from the estate, processors, smallholder and donors. It is the first official industry wide meeting for over 10 years and we all hope that it will be starting point of greater industry collaboration. A number of presentations will be made on important aspects of the industry and a draft strategic plan will be discussed.
