The report scopes the maize sector in Province 1 for Sahaj (NAMDP) Phase II.
It describes maize as a major staple and a critical input for the fast-growing poultry feed industry, yet production, quality and storage remain far below demand.

It identifies systemic constraints and outlines where Sahaj could support improved services, better quality, stronger linkages and greater investment.
