Čeština: Malawi je poslední africkou zemí, která se zabývala legalizací konopí – rostliny, která slouží k výrobě textilií i marihuany - po podobných krocích, provených v Lesothu, Jižní Africe a Zimbabwe. Vzhledem k tomu, že význam tabákového průmyslu v Malawi, dosahujícího doposud největších devizových příjmů země se kvůli kampaním proti kouření zmenšuje, farmáři se nyní snaží přeorientovat na pěstování konopí.
