notes: αfigures in parentheses exclude the 1992 drought year. figures for South Africa are for maize only. The share of maize in
total coarse grain production during the 1980-1989 period was estimated at 91% in Zimbabwe, 98% for Malawi, 95% for
Zambia, 92% for Kenya, and 94% for South Africa (USDA 1992). Sources: Population data: Urban and Nightingale (1993).
Grain data: Min. Agric. data files (Zimbabwe); Jones 1994 (Zambia); Min. Agric. data files, compliments of J. Rusike (Malawi);
Egerton University, Policy Analysis Matrix database (Kenya); FAO Production, Trade, and Fertilizer Yearbooks (Tanzania);
Maize Board, various years, and RSA 1994 (South Africa).
