These resources help them and are important because they get better job opportunities and a better economy. Some of the major resources include arable land and minerals. Arable land is very important to the 
agricultural economy of Malawi. It is communally and privately owned. The land was said to be at 38.18 % in the year 2020. Up to 59% of Malawi’s land is used for cultivation. Malawi grows more fresh crops this way.

With the strength of its resources, Mozambique should now be Southern Africa’s most important energy producer. Mozambique has some of the biggest coal deposits in the world. One of the good resources are hydropower. Hydropower is a resource that is mainly used to generate  electricity. Hydropower in the country has always been the main source of electricity generation, with a potential of 12,500 megawatts. Hydropower helps the country by giving them energy and light. They can also export the energy at the dam. Another strong resource is natural gas. They reserves of about 100 trillion cubic feet and country is 12th among the other countries with proven natural gas reserves. The natural gas is produced at a facility in Temane and then exported through an 865 km pipeline to South Africa, for southern Mozambique to have for domestic use. The country gets fresh gas this way to help their economy. In conclusion, Mozambique has some pretty important natural resources that they can use for their economy.
