  • How much is a bag of sunflower worth in Zambia?
  • Most farmers prefer to sell their sunflower as seeds and grain rather than process it because they receive sales income immediately. But now that Mrs. Kamuwikeni is adding value to her sunflower harvest, she is making twice the money she used to make. A bag of sunflower weighing 25 kilograms is sold at 150 Zambia Kwacha (about $6.60 US).
  • Why did Mrs kamuwikeni stop selling sunflower grains?
  • She stopped selling sunflower grains two years ago because she wanted to make more money. To process sunflower into cooking oil, farmers use a grinding machine called an expeller. Because Mrs. Kamuwikeni does not have an expeller, she uses other people¡¯s expellers and pays a processing fee.
