Farmers in the Area of Senior Chief Kachindamoto in Dedza district of Malawi are in the 2017/2018 farming season competing in Systems of Rice Intensification (SRI) among other innovative farming methods under the Senior Chief Kachindamoto Agriculture Trophy as a means of improving agricultural production and productivity.

Madalitso Chapweteka born in 1979 started farming rice in 1998 on a 0.4 Ha piece of land from where he used to harvest 400 Kgs. This was the case because he was using recycled seed and without any good agricultural practices. His life started to change for the better in 2009 with the coming in of the African Institute of Corporate Citizenship (AICC) at Domasi Irrigation Scheme. AICC introduced a project which was providing inputs through revolving loan to the farmers, promoting good agricultural practices (GAPs). The project also introduced modern farming technologies in rice production in order for them to increase their rice production.
