Valid Nutrition have always argued that RUTF should be produced in the developing countries and regions where it is consumed, ideally using local ingredients sourced from small-holder farmers. Doing so brings major developmental advantages and a corresponding multiplier effect to local economies which ultimately, should facilitate a more efficient supply and value chain. We have now completed a four year study – funded by Irish Aid and in conjunction with University College Cork and Bunda College, Malawi on the Malawi Groundnut Value Chain. The results and implications will be discussed at an event in Malawi on 16th October SHF Presentation Oct 2014
