FORESTRY RESEARCH INSTITUTE OF MALAWI (FRIM) |
Forestry Research Institute of Malawi was established
in 1957 in Dedza as a Silvicultural Research Station under the then Agricultural
Research Council of Central Africa to undertake forestry research
and development with emphasis on softwood and hardwood species for
timber production. The Council was disbanded in 1967 and the Silvicultural
Research Branch and the Wood Products Research Unit joined to form the
Malawi Forestry Research Institute, which was changed to Forestry Research
Institute of Malawi (FRIM) in 1969. The Institute’s headquarters was moved
to the present premises in Zomba in 1975.
