EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The ANSAF annual learning event was organized by the Agricultural Non-State Actors Forum
(ANSAF) in collaboration with Africa Lead under the theme “Leveraging Agriculture-led
Industrialization: Setting the Ground for a Mega Take-off.” The event took place December 1–2,
2016, at the Morena Hotel in Dodoma, Tanzania. The Learning Event focused on bringing
together various stakeholders in the agricultural transformation process to discuss issues of
common interest and seek solutions to obstacles facing stakeholders in pursuit of transforming
the agriculture sector.
The event promoted learning among agriculture sector actors, a platform to share experiences,
and provide evidence-based findings. The presented findings are necessary for changes in policy
and practices, including following up on recommended actions and activities on emerging issues.
The two-day learning event brought together 93 participants from the government, research
institutions, NGOs, farmers organizations, youth entrepreneurs, private sector and media
institutions. The event had presenters from different institutions who covered a wide range of
topics address issues that can help lead the country to an industrialized economy.
The main objective of industrialization emphasizes the identification and promotion of a better
environment to increase value added industrial products, and scaling-up of the value chain in
agriculture, livestock and fisheries. To achieve agricultural-led industrialization, several key
issues should be addressed.
The institutional set up, policy and regulatory framework are critical to driving the national
industrial development process. An effective regulatory capacity that is affordable and cost
effective, and the coordination of existing regulatory bodies, is required to promote the growth
of domestic industries towards agricultural-led production. Participation of various actors
depends on the relationship between stakeholders in the industry and the government.
Linkages and coordination should be enhanced on existing experiences, and good practices
from manufacturers, processors, farmers, fishers and exporters can promote and expedite
quick wins.
It is also important to take part in global value chains (GVCs) by opening up to trade in the
regional and emerging markets, modernizing infrastructure, promoting local entrepreneurs, and
investing in technical education. Participation of different actors also depends on public service
with systems that are supportive to industrialization strategy. Improved business environments
and reduced costs of conducting business are other important aspects in fast tracking the
industrialization process.

While SMEs contribute up to 99.2% of all industrial establishments in the country, and up to
50% of the industrial production, the contribution to employment by the agricultural sector has
declined from 80% in 2000 to 67% in 2016. Agricultural sector growth has remained at 4.4%,
still behind the CAADP framework resolutions. Thus, SMEs are seen to be the stronghold of
the economy, given the declining employment in agricultural sector.
SMEs could help reduce poverty if the challenges facing the industry, including bureaucracy,
overlapping legal and regulatory frameworks, inadequate financing, poor processing technology,
unreliable markets and informal business, the unreliable supply of raw materials, and the lack of
formal education are affectively addressed. Despite the establishment of the SMEs Development
Policy in 2003, and the followed review of legal and regulatory frameworks by the government,
there is still a need for formalized property rights, easily enforced contracts, transparent and
affordable taxation systems, friendly labor regulations, and increased recognition of SMEs.
Various stakeholders should collaborate to address the cross-cutting issues associated in the
development of SMEs.
Recognizing the importance of livestock is essential to address agricultural, economic and food
security challenges. However, it is often neglected in Tanzania. Tanzania has the third-largest
livestock population in Africa. Thus, the country is in a great position to benefit from the
escalating demands for livestock products that are taking place. The fact that livestock
production is largely in the hands of smallholders can play a huge role in improving livelihoods,
and ensuring sustainable development.
The livestock sector contributes only 13% of Tanzania’s agricultural GDP; much lower than
countries with less livestock. Therefore, more investment is needed to exploit emerging
opportunities in the sector, given the exponential increase in global meat and milk markets
projected by 2050. The analysis of different scenarios indicates that replacing 90% of locally
produced animal commodities with imports is not feasible. Transforming smallholder livestock
systems is the best option towards the development of more livelihood opportunities. Public
and private investment in livestock value chains should also consider the key environmental and
human health concerns linked with the sector.
Production of agriculture produce (crops, livestock and fisheries) is important to drive
industrialization. Strategic crops such as cashew nuts, sunflower, coffee and sugarcane can
generate foreign exchange for the country through the export of processed products. Product
prioritization is necessary because it is not easily affordable to produce everything given the
capital and skills required for industrialization. Taking advantage of strategic crops in the
country is an initial entry to a comparative and competitive industrial arena.
xi
Industrialization in Tanzania should be based on competitiveness driven by science, technology
and innovations, but more importantly through enhanced technology transfer. Strengthening
institutions like the Small Industries Development Organization (SIDO), Tanzania Industrial
Research and Development Organization (TIRDO), Tanzania Agricultural Development Bank
(TADB) and supporting SMEs in forming business groups and industrial clusters are crucial
instruments in supporting the nation towards an agricultural-led industrial economy. Research
and Development (R&D) institutions should be equipped with necessary resources to promote
science, technology and innovation in the industry sector. Enhanced collaboration between
R&D institutions and industries should be optimized to develop efficient and appropriate
technologies for commercialization, and to maximize productivity.
The SAGCOT initiative in the Southern Tanzania provides an opportunity for public and private
sector collaboration in spurring agricultural growth. Through a cluster approach, SAGCOT
aggregates different value chain actors and nucleus farms in a supportive eco-system. The
government of Tanzania is working strategically with development partners to develop
innovative financing mechanisms with different actors in the agriculture value chain by linking
financial institutions, investors and insurance companies with farmers in the clusters. Other
efforts are centered on the value chain approach through establishing strategic partnerships to
create synergies, addressing constraints in the business environment, lleveraging infrastructure
investments, and considering green growth initiatives.

1. INTRODUCTION
Since its inception in 2006, the Agricultural Non-State Actors Forum (ANSAF) has promoted
learning and sharing among agricultural sector actors. Through several events, actors have
adopted and updated approaches to support agricultural sector performance. Similarly learning
events have been used to provide the evidence necessary for changes in policy and practices.
The annual learning event organized by the ANSAF Secretariat in collaboration with its
members provides an avenue for members and agriculture stakeholders to exchange
experiences on pro-poor policies and practices and challenges in adopted policies and practices
to support smallholder and agribusinesses.
The Tanzania Development Vision 2025 focuses on attaining middle-income status by 2025. The
Five Year Development Plan (5YDP2) is among the medium-term plans/strategies to implement
and realize this vision. The government has committed to supporting initiatives aimed at
promoting farming and industrial development in Tanzania by creating jobs, promoting
technology development, and increasing competitiveness in the regional and global economies.
Agriculture, which forms the mainstay of Tanzania’s economy, is one such sector that could
lead to greater realization of primary, secondary and tertiary industries in the country, thereby
contributing significantly to the economy.
The 2016 theme "Leveraging Agriculture-Led Industrialization: Setting the Grounds for a Mega Take-
Off" supports a deeper analysis to identify critical areas, value chains, and chain nodes of
agricultural commodities to set preconditions for interventions by various actors, and realize
the vision for agro-industries.
The learning event provided an opportunity for participants to explore various issues and the
linkages between small, medium and large scale industries. Participants also explored optimal
conditions for operationalization and key policy changes that are necessary for successful agro-
industry development.
Discussions and presentations were held on small and medium industries, applicable local
technologies, and the prevailing status in the country. Issues covering the institutional
architecture, the policy and legal framework, the role of SMEs, the state of agro-processing
firms, livestock contributions to the agro-industry, sectoral and institutional coordination, and
strategies for fast-tracking the industrialization process were thoroughly discussed.

Secretariat worked closely with other stakeholders to mobilise and coordinate necessary resources that led to the
success of the event.
1.1 Background
The agricultural sector in Tanzania is faced with low productivity resulting from several factors,
including unreliable rainfall, low production per capita, an unreliable supply of inputs, poor
storage facilities and a lack of modern techniques, poor extension services, and post-harvest
losses. Poor yields both in terms of quantity and quality have hindered industrialization, mainly
due to unreliable supplies and the inferior quality of agricultural products. This has prevented
the promotion of sound agro-processing industries in Tanzania. Farmers often practice
subsistence farming, thus they can neither provide surplus for the market nor labor force to
activate the industries.
Tanzania’s weak agro-processing industries cannot motivate farmers or stimulate demand
because of poor linkages between the agriculture and industrial sectors. The sectors with the
highest linkages are able to stimulate a more rapid growth of production, income and
employment.
3
Agricultural development and industrialization should be promoted simultaneously through the
effective involvement of different actors. Despite the fact that Tanzania has initiated several
national agriculture slogans, including the most recent “Kilimo Kwanza,” the country has not
emphasized economic transformation through the agro-industry approach.
Tanzania’s Five Year Development Plan recognizes industrialization as key to economic
transformation. Taking this opportunity, the Integrated Industrial Development Strategy (IIDS)
2025 proposes an aggressive industrial investment to create challenging industrial bases in
Tanzania to pursue the mandate set by the Vision 2025. Agriculture and industries are the
integral components of the development process due to their mutual interdependence and
symbiotic relationship. Hence, the contribution of agriculture to the economy and industry is
well-known in almost all the developing countries. However, the degree of interdependence
may vary and change over time depending on economic and business dynamics.
In empirical literature, the inter-relationship between agriculture and industry has been
discussed from different channels. First, agriculture supplies food grains to the industry to
facilitate absorption of labor in the industry sector. Second, agriculture supplies inputs such as
raw cotton, cashew nuts, sunflower seeds, tea, coffee etc., needed by the agro-based industries.
Third, industry supplies inputs, such as fertilizer, pesticides and machinery to the agriculture
sector. Fourth, agriculture influences the output of industrial consumer goods through demand.
Fifth, agriculture generates surpluses of savings, which can cumulatively be mobilized for
investment in industry, and other sectors of the economy. Sixth, fluctuations in agricultural
production may affect private corporate investment decisions through the impact of the terms
of trade on profitability.
The learning event with the theme “Leveraging Agriculture–led Industrialization” enabled the
participation of various key stakeholders to convene and share experiences and challenges. As a
result of the learning event, the government is committed towards transforming the country’s
economy.
Furthermore, the event served as a platform to address targets stipulated by The National
Development Vision 2025 (VISION 2025), Sustainable Industrial Development Policy 1996-2020
(SIDP 1996-2020), Integrated Industrial Development Strategy 2025 (IIDS), and Agricultural
Development Led Industrialization strategy. The event addressed the targets of promoting rural
industrialization, supporting the successful implementation of several agricultural policies and
equitable growth of the country, and providing growth opportunities to all growth oriented
micro, small and medium scale enterprises as well as entrepreneurs through backward and
forward linkages to support the industrialization process.

1.3 Objectives of the Learning Event
ANSAF’s 2016 learning event identified critical areas/value chains and chain nodes of agricultural
commodities and set preconditions for medium to long-term interventions by various actors to
realize the vision of agricultural industries.
The event was set to identify agricultural potential in Tanzania, explore key triggers of
industrialization, and propose short, medium and long-term interventions for key priority
sectors by linking with Big Results Now (BRN), the Agricultural Sector Development Program,
and Kilimo Kwanza initiatives. The event was designed to address issues pertaining to linkages
between backyards (home grown), small, medium and large (sophisticated) industries, optimal
conditions to operationalize, and key policy changes necessary for successful agro-industry
development.

2. KEY EMERGING ISSUES IN
AGRICULTURE AND
INDUSTRIALIZATION IN TANZANIA
2.1 Remarks from Guest of Honor and Key Persons
Welcoming Note from ANSAF Executive Secretary, Mr. Audax Rukonge
Production of crop commodities such as oil seeds (e.g. sunflowers, palm kernels etc.),
cashew nuts, as well as livestock products (including beef, poultry, milk and animal skins)
have the potential to increase employment opportunities, and generate income and
economic growth in Tanzania. However, the production and processing of these
commodities is very minimal. There is a need to identify the missing links that can
improve agriculture productivity, and process both crop and livestock commodities.
Stakeholders need to identify all opportunities and address how to best promote the
strategic engagement of youth, women, and other gender groups in the industrialization
process.

Keynote Speaker – Prof. Damian Gabagambi on behalf of Chairperson of ANSAF’s BoD
The government of Tanzania has expressed a willingness to promote local investments
and transform the industrial sector by 2025. There is a need to reflect on this policy
statement and agree on what needs to be done to improve productivity, and enhance
industrial development in Tanzania.
As a country, Tanzania also needs to take into consideration the factors that facilitate
other countries to boost industrial development, including peace and stability,
productivity of the key sector, population size, improved access to raw materials,
reliable electricity, water resources, good financial system, reliable transport system,
quality education and provision of enabling environments for agribusiness.
There is inter-dependency between agriculture and industrial sectors. The former
provides inputs (e.g. raw materials) and markets to the latter and vice versa.
Development of one sector over another is likely to negatively affect investment
outcomes in both sectors. Thus, it is important to equally develop both sectors.
However, investment in the key sector is more likely to benefit and/or boost
development in other sectors including industries.
As we prepare for our mega take-off to agriculture–led industrialization, there is a need
to address some important questions such as:
– Has productivity increased enough to support industrialization?
– What type of industries do we need?
– What size of industries do we need? For example, small, medium size or large
scale industries?
– How many people will be employed and/or benefit from these industries?
– Where exactly should we establish the industries – rural or urban areas?
– Is the policy and institutional environment supportive enough to transform the
sector?
Once we address these questions, it is possible for non-state stakeholders to advise
and/or work with the government to create a more enabling environment for industrial
development and agro business in Tanzania.
There is a need to develop a strategy for the industrialization of rural areas that focuses
on small scale industries if we want to create more opportunities for employment and
alleviate poverty.
Multiple investments will be achieved through collaboration between the business
environment and government.

As a country, we need to address most of the challenges affecting the agricultural
sector, including low productivity, poor technology, reliance on smallholder farmers and
heavy dependence on rain-fed agriculture, and low processing of agriculture
commodities, including both crop and livestock produce.
Remarks from the Guest of Honor - Hon. Dr. Charles Tizeba (MP), Minister for
Agriculture Livestock and Fisheries
According to the Minister for Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, Hon. Dr. Charles
Tizeba, the government is a key stakeholder in promoting productivity and agriculture-
led-industrialization in Tanzania. Specific policies and development strategies and
programs such as ASDP II have been developed to facilitate the attainment of the set
targets.
For the past seven years, resolutions and recommendations from stakeholders on
improving agriculture production such as those organized by ANSAF have not been
implemented adequately. Most of it ended up in books, proceedings and papers stored
in the public offices.
The Minister called upon the convention to come up with fewer but implementable
recommendations, and submit them to the relevant authority (MALF) for consideration
and implementation. He also emphasized the need for other stakeholders facilitate the
resolution and implementation processes.
Tanzania cannot develop its industries if the agricultural sector relies on raw materials
imported from other countries. There is a need to strategize and ensure that all raw
materials are produced within the country, and this can be achieved if we increase
productivity. Also, there is a need to increase competitiveness of the sector to promote
the production of high quality goods and services.
For nearly six decades, the country has been protecting local industries by imposing
higher taxes on imported goods, and firmly restricting the importation of agricultural
commodities such as sugar, rice, egg laying chicken breeds, and others. There is a need
to reflect on our protection policy and find out if it is the most appropriate and effective
way to protect Tanzania’s industries. We also need identify if the policies promote
productivity and production of good quality commodities as well as competitiveness of
the sector.
The abundance of intellectual professionals found in the Ministry of Agriculture,
Livestock and Fisheries (MALF), and the 26 agricultural research institutions that exist in
Tanzania should play their roles and work to find solutions to the underperforming
agricultural sector, improve its productivity, and thereby enhance industrial
development in the country.
Post-harvest loss is big challenge in many parts of Tanzania and currently stands at 42%
of all agriculture produce. Thus, there is a need to look into the whole supply chain in
8
order to identify the source of the problem, and device better post-harvest management
options that will help to improve production and utilization of quality agricultural
commodities.
The Government of Tanzania (through MALF) has taken initiative to negotiate with
financial institutions including NMB, CRDB and Commercial Bank of Africa (CBA) to
support and finance projects geared at reducing post-harvest loss. NMB has already set
aside 500 million USD, while CRDB has allocated 460 million USD. Thus, the
government is calling upon the private sector and other stakeholders to make use of the
opportunity and invest in post-harvest loss management such as construction of cold
storage facilities.
The government is also committed to change the image and perception of young people
towards agriculture so that agriculture is considered the first and most important
source of employment for youth.
Vote of Thanks and Remarks - Mr. Rashid Ally Mamu, Chairperson, TEOSA
Mr. Rashid Ally Mamu articulated that the current government is showing interest and
willingness to promote industrial development and transform the sector. We should be
at the frontline in promoting domestically manufactured goods, instead of imported
commodities. However, there is a big difference in prices between imported and locally
produced agricultural commodities such as sugar, rice and others. There is a need to
find out why the cost of purchasing 1 kg of sugar from Kilombero in Tanzania is
relatively higher (Tshs. 1,450/=) as compared to imported sugar from Brazil (which is
sold at Tshs. 600/=). Mr. Mamu recommended the government to identify long term
solutions to the problem, rather than looking for a quick fix. Raising farm gate prices for

agriculture commodity may not necessary provide the best solution and incentives for
farmers to produce more.
2.2 Presentation Summaries
2.2.1 Institutional Setup, Policy and Legal Framework: A Comparative study in Sub
Saharan Africa region
The Tanzania Vision 2025 strives to build a strong and competitive economy that is
characterized by a higher level of industrialization and a high productivity agriculture –
which is an important pillar in the process of industrialization. The government has
expressed determination to achieve this.
However, the key question that needs to be addressed is the nature and pattern of
industrialization, as well as the institutional framework and its implications in enabling
industrial development.
In Tanzania, just like most African countries, economic growth is still driven by
commodity exports rather than firm industrialization agenda supported by
manufacturing. Most economic activities take place in the informal sector, which is
dominated by small enterprises producing large numbers of low-quality domestic goods.
Productivity and earning are also very low. Developments of the informal sector and
especially agriculture based industrial enterprises have the potential to provide
remunerative employment opportunities for the country’s rapidly growing youthful
population, and lift many Tanzanians out of poverty.
Industrialization is at the core of diversification based on agriculture and value addition.
There is need to harness backward and forward linkages for agricultural production,

on Institutional setup, policy and legal framework.

remarks on behalf of ANSAF Board Chairman.

adopting effective industrial policies and agriculture-led industrialization, and
strengthening industrial linkages to agriculture. This will make the agricultural sector
serve as a catalyst for long-term diversification, industrialization and competitiveness.
Also, it is important to take into account the global value chains (GVCs), examine the
structure of specific industries, and take advantage of regulation and advances in ICT to
engage in global trade.
Tanzania and other African countries can integrate into GVCs by opening up to trade,
targeting regional and emerging markets, modernizing infrastructure, promoting local
entrepreneurship, and investing in technical education.
Also, there is a need to build institutional capacities in terms of government policies,
legal and regulatory frameworks and local domestic capabilities as they are critical
determinants of entry into the global value chains. It is important to create balance
between trade and industrial policies, develop linkages, and support coordination of key
stakeholders, including farmers, growers, processors and exporters in order to promote
synergy and complementarily between actors.
Development of agriculture and agro-led industrialization is facilitated by a supportive
environment that may be driven by initiatives in sectors outside agriculture. Hence, it is
important to strengthen inter-institutional coordination, institutional set-up and
consultations, improve land use planning and management, establish long term industrial
financing actions, and develop effective monitoring and evaluation mechanisms for
tracking progress.
Comments and Recommendations from Plenary
Kilimo Kwanza (KK) and its linkage with other policies: KK was the first initiative to
support agricultural transformation in Tanzania within the framework of ASDP and
implement the Agricultural Sector Development Strategy (ASDS). However, the
initiative lacked institutional framework to facilitate implementation of its ten pillars.
Issues to do with industrialization were not highly emphasized in the KK document.
Essentially, the two sectors (agriculture and industry) are complementary to each other.
Thus, to achieve the real transformation, ongoing initiatives must focus on developing
both sectors.
Government plans to recruit young graduate to curb shortage of extension
officers: The biggest challenge that the government is working on is to enforce
discipline and accountability of extension officers and farmers at different levels.
Invest in and promote usage of information and communication technology (ICT)
and innovations: This will facilitate the provision and easy access to extension services.
In this way, one extension officer would be able to serve the entire ward and district.
The role and contribution of ICT in agricultural development was highly appreciated,
11
although most initiatives are donor supported. Thus, there is a need for government
investment in ICT.
Access to land for livestock enterprises and other investors: This requires
intervention and massive investment in land survey and land use and management plans
by the Ministry of Lands and Human Settlement.
Ministerial plan to spend scarce resources allocated for sector development:
Allocations should support selected strategic commodities throughout the value chain,
including producers, processors, traders, transporters and others. This will prioritize
and support farmers or industrial activities especially now that the government is
determined to accelerate industrial development.
Priority challenges that need to be addressed to help improve agriculture
productivity: It is important to develop processing industries and ensure availability of
reliable markets for farmers. Also, there is a need to improve stakeholder coordination
and consultations because there is a lack of institutional mechanisms that bring together
all actors involved in the implementation of the 10 pillars of Kilimo Kwanza.
Government plans to do away with challenges related to tax regime: Improve
investment environment by reviewing and/or improving all disenabling tax laws and
regulations. Stakeholders need to identify and advise the government on tax policies and
regulations that require further improvement.
Institutional set-up and intra - ministerial coordination to implement ASDP II and
other policies related to fisheries, livestock and crop sub-sectors: All sub-
sections under MALF are implementing the national development vision 2025. It is
important that key actors clarify roles and device better ways of working together.
Government plans to support cashew nut sub-sector: The government discourages
exportation of raw cashew through taxation. Currently, discussion is underway with
CDTIF to support the construction of cashew processing industries in Tanzania. There
is a need to strengthen institutional capacity to support these industries.
2.2.2 Toward Agro-Industry Led Production Support
The emphasis was on the importance of agriculture sector, its performance, priority
commodities, available research findings, support needed, and how producers can be
reached towards the agriculture-led industrialization.
It was explained that agriculture will continue to remain the pillar of the Tanzania
economy, as it contributes 95 percent of all food requirement, employs 67 per cent of
the population, and provides raw materials for industries.
12
The sector has potential to lift many of the poor people out of poverty and achieve the
middle-income status by 2025. The sector has maintained a steady growth rate over 4%
above the current population growth of 2.8%. The growth rate lags behind the 6%
growth rate as agreed under the CAADP framework; hence more efforts are still
needed to increase productivity to maintain a sustainable growth.
Investment opportunities exist for the production and processing of various food and
cash crops. Priority crops identified include fruits and vegetables, rice production, oil
seed production and processing, cashew nut production and processing, and sugar cane
production. Others include sisal, cotton, tea, coffee and pyrethrum.
In terms of research and development, limited access to inputs and timely advice hold
back progress in the intensification of agriculture. Hence, government spending on
research and development will ensure productivity in agriculture.
To develop a competitive and sustainable agro-industry sector, research should focus on
various components of the agricultural food chains. The initiatives should improve
productivity at the farm level, and upgrading value chains through empowering farmers’
organizations and their involvement in strategic partnerships.
Value addition should be carefully considered in response to local, regional and
international demand.
There should be a focus on enhancing the role of research, technology and innovation in
the food chain.
Research support should focus on improved technology generation, technology
dissemination, capacity building of research institutes, agro processing technology and
innovations, and enhanced collaboration with regional and international research
institutes.
Farmers’ organizations play an important role towards agricultural led industrialization
as they represent farmers’ interests. These organizations are an important means
through which farmers are empowered.
Through organizations, farmers can be empowered through linkages with the
commodity/growers’ associations, marketing cooperatives, contract farming, agro
processors and exporters.
2.2.3 The Government Role in Supporting SMEs Growth
The main emphasis was on the role played by the government in supporting the micro,
small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), and an overview of the changing trends in the
agriculture sector.
Worldwide SMEs contributes to 90% of all business establishments. SMEs contribute to
almost 99.15% of all 49,243 industrial establishments in Tanzania, employing
approximately 5.2million people and contributing up to 50% of industrial production.
13
Up to 55% of the SMEs dominate in rural areas, contributing about 30% of Tanzania’s
total exports.
However, there has been a decline in the contribution to employment by the agriculture
sector as well as its contribution to the GDP. In terms of employment, there has been a
decline from 80% in the year 2000 to 67% in 2016. Its contribution to GDP has declined
from 30% in 2000 to 24% in 2010, and is projected to be 18% by 2025.
The agricultural sector growth has remained at 4.4% which still falls behind the CAADP
framework target. Similar findings by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) indicate a
discrepancy in sector growth from the CAADP resolution over a span of six years.
Therefore, to ensure expected levels of poverty eradication, the sector must maintain a
6% annual growth rate.
SMEs are seen to be the stronghold of the Tanzania economy given the declining trend
in the agriculture sector, with a large segment of the population joining the SMEs.
SME’s also face substantial challenges, including bureaucracy, centralized legal and
regulatory frameworks, limited access to financing, limited access to modern technology,
low level of formalization, and limited formal education and record keeping.
For SME’s to achieve successful contribution in the industrial-led economy, there is a
need for clearly recognized property rights, easily enforced contracts, transparent and
affordable taxation system, friendly labor regulations, and increased recognition.
To support SMEs, the government has implemented several initiatives including, the
establishment of the SMEs Development Policy in 2003, and review of regulatory
frameworks that have enabled the simplification of procedures for business startups and
licensing, identification and improvement of conflicting sections, review of tax regime,
strengthening of industrial support institutions, establishment and development of
incubators for SMEs, streamlining of the regulatory regime, reform of compliance
systems and an established integrated online registration system.
Conclusively, entrepreneurship has great potential within the industrial-led agricultural
development in Tanzania.
Sustainable agricultural transformation will come from the development of SMEs.
Therefore, strategies focusing on developing SMEs are important.
The development of SMEs requires collaboration and cooperation by various
stakeholders as well as the harmonization of policies and efforts key sectors and
ministries.

2.2.4 Performance of Small Scale Agro-Processing Firms in Tanzania
The paper highlighted the role of industrialization in helping Tanzania to create
employment for the growing youth population. However, the degree of job creation is
dependent upon the industrial policies and strategies being pursued.
Since independence, Tanzania has pursued different policies and strategies in industrial
development with different implications in employment creation, including private sector
–led import substitution strategy, public sector-led industrialization strategy during of
Ujamaa and self-reliance period, long-term basic industry strategy, and Sustainable
Industrial Development Policy 1996-2020.
After independence, several industries were established between 1967 and 1985. Agro-
industries were established in almost all major agricultural value chains. Industries were
large-scale, run by the state, and used capital-intensive technologies.
Poor performance of most of these large industries led to their privatization during the
economic reform period from the 1980s-1990s. Following privatization, the industries

Dr. Charles Tizeba discussing with small entrepreneurs at the exhibition booths.
15
continued to perform below their installed capacity, and most of them have been closed
or converted into other uses.
Supporting small agro-enterprises is a promising strategy towards an industrialised
Tanzania by 2020. Therefore, SMEs demonstrate a high potential for employment
creation, because they are labor intensive, easy to manage, inclusive, and entailing little
capital requirement.
A recent survey on performance of 134 small scale agro-processing enterprises in three
regions including Dodoma, Morogoro and Singida, indicated that they are challenged by
unreliable electricity supply, poor processing technology, difficulty in meeting quality
standards, high taxes, poor access to markets, lack of credit, and unreliable supply of
raw materials.
To address the challenges facing small scale agro-enterprises, and contribute in the
industrialisation process and employment creation, several actions are recommended
which include:
i. Increasing productivity of crops, livestock and fisheries to ensure supply of raw
materials.
ii. Enhancing research and development in high yielding varieties.
iii. Promoting low cost irrigation.
iv. Linking small scale agro-processing enterprises to large scale processing firms,
to enhance skills and technologies spillovers, enhance competitiveness, and
maintain quality of products.
2.2.5 Rationale and Opportunities for Investment in Livestock Value Chains
Livestock is central to agricultural development. However, it is often neglected in
Tanzania. Livestock can aid Tanzania in addressing its rural commercialization, economic
and food security challenges.
With the third largest livestock population in Africa, Tanzania is well placed to benefit
from the escalating demand for livestock products taking place.
The increasing value of livestock products is particularly good for agribusiness given that
five of the top six highest value global agricultural commodities include animal source
foods.
However, despite its contribution of at least 40 percent to agricultural GDP in many of
the world’s poorest economies, it receives only 4 percent of agricultural official
development assistance.
Livestock contributes only 13% of Tanzania’s agricultural GDP, much lower than
countries with fewer livestock. However, more investments to exploit the emerging
opportunities in the sector will shift this trend.
By 2050, it is anticipated that the global meat and milk markets will increase by 145 and
155 per cent respectively, over 2005/07 levels. Over this period, Africa’s increase in
16
volume of meat consumed will be as good as that of the developed world and Latin
America.
Moreover, gains in the size of milk markets will be stronger in Africa, especially in East
Africa, than in any other region except South Asia. The continent will increasingly
become a net importer of animal-sourced foods unless investments are rapidly deployed
to tap the widespread opportunities that livestock sector can generate.
It is anticipated that Tanzania and the rest of the African continent will meet the
increasing demand for livestock commodities in the following areas: i) importing
livestock products; ii) importing livestock industrial production know-how; and iii)
transforming smallholder livestock systems.
However, the findings indicate that replacing 90 percent of locally produced animal
commodities with imports is not feasible. Hence, transforming smallholder livestock
systems that dominate production is the only realistic option with enormous livelihood
benefits.
The market value of Africa’s animal-source foods is estimated at USD 151 billion in
2050. Therefore, given its high population of animals, Tanzania is in a good position to
tap into rapidly rising opportunities for private sector investment.
Both public and private investment in livestock value chains should consider its inherent
complexities, including issues involving environmental and human health concerns.
The entry points for both public and private investments should be carefully examined
to avoid past mistakes.
It can be concluded that livestock is undoubtedly fundamental to agriculture-led
industrialization in Tanzania. It is important to understand its real impact and assess its
benefits in order to exploit its full potential for sustainable development.
2.2.6 Tanzania Livestock Sector Analysis (LSA): Results and Conclusions for the 2016-
2031
The findings relied on the most recent available data, generated through the MALF and
the ILRI using bio-economical simulation models to assess the current state of livestock
development in Tanzania. The tool was used to assess the potential long-term (15-20
years) impact of combined technology and policy interventions in the livestock sector.
Termed as Livestock Sector Analysis (LSA), the analysis examined the three major
livestock commodities that can potentially contribute to economic growth through
industrialization, including dairy, red meat (from cattle, sheep, and goats), and white
meat (chicken & Swine). All commodities showed positive return on investment.
Through LSA, huge deficits in meat especially beef are projected over the coming 15
years (2016-2031).
17
On the demand side, the projected deficits are driven by increasing human population,
income growth rates, urbanization, and high income elasticity of demand.
On the supply side, the projected red meat supply deficit is mainly driven by feed
constraints (grazing land), existing poor animal genetics and health, as well as the low
quantity of Animal Source Foods (ASFs) produced.
The findings underscored that even with additional investment in red meat; a large
deficit is projected to meet red meat consumption requirements. Export of red meat
will lower meat supply in the country unless the gap is narrowed or there is a surplus in
production.
Therefore, investing in white meat (pigs and poultry) can suffice all-meat consumption
requirements to achieve food security and red meat exports. There is a need for better
chicken and pig breeds, and disease control.
Diseases pose potential risks for poultry and pigs, which also needs to be addressed.
Pigs are prone to African swine fever and no reliable vaccination exists. Therefore,
better prevention and control is essential.
It is recommended to construct additional meat processing plants to meet the expected
supply.
The government should also promote the export of processed red meat to more
lucrative international markets, and foster the international sanitary standards to
promote red meat trade.
The government should consider the implementation of realistic and affordable systems
of animal identification, traceability, and regulations to ensure food safety and animal
health through monitoring abattoirs and disease surveillance.
Tanzania has huge stock of raw materials for leather industries, with annual estimates of
2.8 million hides and 2.1 million skins. This will potentially contribute to sector and
economic growth.
The analysis of additional dairy investments demonstrates the gap projected in milk
consumption. A surplus can be achieved through artificial insemination and
synchronization, combined with improved feed and health interventions, value addition,
and complementary policy changes.
Investment in long shelf-life (LSL) milk processing by the private sector will be crucial for
overcoming the huge projected milk deficits. Key policy changes are needed to increase
investment in long shelf-life (LSL) milk processing and milk quality standards
enforcement.
As part of the solution to policy challenges, the government is about to embark on
ASDP II, which pays attention to the critical roles of the private sector in livestock
industrialization. The sector program focuses on:
i. Value added processing and quality input provision by the private sector.
18
ii. Attracting and enabling more private investment in processing livestock products
and inputs.
iii. Improving the investment process through less bureaucracy in business setup.
iv. Developing incentives for private investment in processing, including subsidized
land leasing costs, low interest loans, and tax holidays.
2.2.7 The Economic Potential in the Cashew Nuts Value Chain: An Opportunity for
Leveraging
The impact of untapped potential in agro processing is vividly revealed in the cashew nut
value chain. The fact that the country is endowed with arable land that has potential for
farming prospects, gives an opportunity for strategic crops like cashew nuts to
adequately generate enough forex earnings if the products are sold as processed nuts.
However, Tanzania exports more than 80 to 90 percent of its cashew nuts as raw
product.
Despite higher price levels for Tanzania nuts as compared to other African countries, as
well as huge markets for processed kernels in the Vietnam, India, Netherlands, USA, and
UAE, cashew nut processing remains underdeveloped and insufficiently competitive. The
country fails to utilize its full processing capacity due to insufficient funding, high
production cost, inadequate management and business skills of local operators, unskilled
labor, inapt processing technologies, and market uncertainty due to lack of registered
Kernels branding.
Value addition for other cashew by-products (apples, shells, cashew nuts shells liquid)
have not been adequately used as an additional source of income and efficiency in the
processing industry. Thus, the value obtained from farming of cashew nuts is not reflected
in the livelihoods of the local people involved in the value chain.
Following the study conducted by ANSAF (2012-2016), it was revealed that in the past
five years Tanzania has lost a maximum of USD 550 million in value addition by exporting
in-shell cashew nuts instead of processing them. Although the country makes an average
of USD110 million per year, the amount is more than the annual development budget for
ministries. Similar amounts could also be used to build modern and safe cashew factories
to process the entire Tanzania cashew crop. Processing the crop could secure
employment of 45,000 people in various sections along the line of processing.
2.2.8 Sugar Sector Development in Tanzania
This thematic area examined the concept of intermediary coordination, characteristics
of the sugar industry in Tanzania, missing links, and policy recommendations. The concept
of intermediary coordination plays a big role in production, including its secondary
19
activities, contract facilitation, distribution and consumption, but most importantly is its
involvement in pricing model. The whole concept takes into consideration every aspect
of coordination, including value addition, number of employees involved in the process,
and impact to the economy.
The coordination refers to the vertical and horizontal aspects where various parties
involved in value chain need to interact, and coordinate to manage the magnitudes of
risks and process flow, and improve market linkages, productivity, and efficiency.
The vertical and horizontal coordination discussed involve interaction between and
among producers and the industry owners.
The importance of examining the levels of coordination is to avoid reduced productivity
and efficiency, and ensure that the frameworks are in place to facilitate smooth
operation in the crop value chain.
Recent trends in Tanzania indicate a declining share of out-grower contribution in the
sugar industry from 49 to 13 percent between 2009 and 2013. This was due to poor
relations between out-growers and the mills in Kilombero and Mtibwa.
Globally, competitiveness in the evolving the sugar industry is replacing
compartmentalized markets. Thus, there is a need to strengthen intermediary
coordination - both vertical and horizontal - through intermediated market-based
solutions, including the following: i) credits; ii) state interventions that set aside special
agricultural credit to finance agricultural infrastructure such as irrigation; iii) review of
land use regime and regulatory framework to promote block farming; and iv) Increasing
awareness about out-grower/farmer to various actors in the vertical and horizontal
scales.
2.2.9 Technological Development and Transfer as a Trigger of Industrial Development in
Tanzania
Tanzania is not exempted from the fact that agricultural and industrial development
requires appropriate technologies to enhance the value chain in various available local
resources.
This is because the government gave mandate to SIDO to facilitate the industrialization
processes by various approaches, including enhancing technology development, and
technology transfer to small and medium enterprises to trigger the industrialization
process in the country, particularly through the agriculture as a vehicle.
Approximately 21 technology skill transfer trainings are provided monthly, (about 410
entrepreneurs are trained. The government facilitates these trainings to instill and
nurture entrepreneurial spirit, establish and enhance SMEs, and overcome challenges in
the agro-industry.
20
The focus of the organization is to promote the development of small scale industries as
an important path towards leading the agriculture led industry in the country. This is
achieved through business and market development, (for instance in facilitating SMEs
products certification) and financial support to entrepreneurs.
There is an emphasis on transforming local available resources, especially agricultural
products, into saleable products. The processing aspect and industry based activities
must play an important role in converting raw products into more valued-added
products.
SIDO is currently pioneering the collaboration with all districts in Tanzania. It has
established a One District One Product (ODOP) model, with an objective of adding
value to local resources where approximately 90% of agro-based products are
supported by providing technology and other business development services.
The process requires that each agro-product contains a series of products that enhance
the value of the product.
2.2.10 Strategies for Fast-Tracking Industrialization in Tanzania
Participants discussed multiple issues related to industrialization in Tanzania, including the
following: i) political will; ii) supporting policies; iii) technological adaption with innovation
driven by research and development; iv) production and availability of raw materials for agro-
processing; v) practical evidence of similar conditions and environments within Tanzania; and vi)
employment opportunities.
It was emphasized that the enhancement of agriculture will trigger industrialization. This
is because industry creates market opportunities for agricultural products.
Employment creation within the channel is a direct and proportional effect of the
agriculture-led industrialization because one of the major and foremost resources in
value chain is the labor force.
Diversification of activities within the agriculture-led industry will enforce the application
and transfer of various technologies to yield productivity and efficiency. This will create
foreign currencies for increased national income, and potential transformation of the
country’s economy from the low of stakeholder’s participation.
In Tanzanian context, industrialization boosts local production, and expand and optimize
the exploitation of domestic natural resources, of which agriculture has a larger part of
transformation.
The success of the industrialization process depends on the participation of government
through the creation of enabling environments, policies and public goods, basic
infrastructure, and facilitation services in collaboration with private sector. The private
21
sector plays an important role in investing in production and processing, exploring
various business opportunities, and providing the work force.
2.2.11 Investment in SAGCOT
The SAGCOT Initiative strives to spur agricultural growth in the Tanzania’s southern
highlands by 2030. SAGCOT works through a cluster approach, which aggregates
different value chain actors and nucleus farms in a supportive eco-system.
The ‘cluster’ approach gives large and small actors access to shared infrastructure and
services. Nearly 60% of food consumed in Tanzania is produced in the SAGCOT area,
playing an importantt role in the agriculture value chain.
The Government of Tanzania through SAGCOT is strategically driving the innovative
financing mechanisms with different actors in agriculture value chain by linking financial
institutions, investors, and insurance companies with farmers. Other efforts are
centered on value chain approach to allow for scale, establish strategic partnerships to
create synergies, address constraints in the business environment, lleveraging
infrastructure investments and enabling green growth.
The SAGCOT involvement in agriculture transformation centers on the triggers of
industrialization in the country, such as access to adequate infrastructure (rural roads,
railway, electricity and water) and soft triggers such as dialogue between public, private
and non-state actors (civil society organizations), public private partnerships, and
platforms for businesses. The latter is important towards establishing new business
ventures, access to new technology, and access to markets focused on maximizing
benefits that can be accrued from the value chain.
The emphasis is on the importance of industrialization triggers as a major push of the
agriculture-led industry process. This includes conducting review meetings and dialogues
to accommodate issues, and creating win-win situations in agriculture chain among
different stakeholders on hard and soft triggers. The triggers are complementary to each
other, thus making a complete successful enabling environment that favors growth of
both local industries, and foreign based investment.
2.2.12 Driving Policy Solutions through Partnership: A Case Study of the Partnership and
Accountability Committee in Tanzania
Empowering and enhancing stakeholders’ collaboration at various levels of agriculture
value chains is key to facilitating effective partnership in agriculture transformation.
There are many factors that call upon the involvement of other stakeholders as its
implementation cannot be dealt with in isolation. These factors include agricultural led
industry infrastructures, finances, and policy issues.
22
To achieve agricultural transformation, alliances have been established by the
government, development partners, private sector and other NSAs to facilitate
development of resolutions that enable the agriculture sector to grow at the acceptable
pace.
The strength of the alliance has been from partnerships with the common goals of
transforming agriculture. Various instruments have been established to enhance these
partnerships including the Comprehensive African Agriculture Development Programme
(CAADP), Tanzania Agriculture and Food Security Investment Plan (TAFSIP), The
Agriculture Sector Development Strategy (ASDS), Agriculture Sector Development
Program (ASDP) and Big Results Now (BRN); and
The success of the partnerships is achieved through a defined and shared agenda with a
clear and specified goal, strategic partnerships with reciprocal commitments, initiative
dialogue and negotiation, as well as monitoring and review of progress of commitments
set.
2.3. Panel Discussion Summaries
The following were highlights from the participants.
A) The government through the MITI gives a clear direction on which type of industries
will lead towards an industrialized economy in 2025.
B) It is not clear whether the agricultural-led industrialization is a policy, a statement, an
initiative or a manifesto.
C) There should be a policy document that specifies the type of industries prioritized by
the government, and specification of target markets and quality standards. It is necessary
to meet quality standards for the domestic consumption before thinking of the
international markets.
D) Specialization within the value chain is necessary to maintain efficiency. If resources are
not sufficient to embrace the whole value chains, potential investors from within the
EAC may contribute to a certain segment in the value chain.
E) It is important to enable the business environment. Also, clear guidelines for investors
should be put in place to attract investments in the country.
F) A combination of small, medium and large scale industries is necessary for an industrial-
led economy. Decisions should be carefully made since small and medium scale
industries are labor intensive, and employ majority of the people in the rural and urban
settings.
G) The government should work towards addressing high and multiple taxes that hinders
investment by both local and foreign investors.
23
H) Resource allocation is necessary. The government should fast-track offsetting aside
specific land for agriculture investment, catering for the interest of domestic and foreign
investors.
I) The government should seriously improve the insurance policy to facilitate crop
insurance for local investors and smallholder farmers.
J) The industrialization process should be aligned with a well-coordinated and organized
plan for developing adequate, and well trained man power for industrialization, since
importing the skills will not be a sustainable option.
K) There is a need to examine new crop varieties that can potentially be introduced for
commercial purposes.
2.4 Plenary Discussion Summaries
The following issues were raised and responses were provided during the plenary discussion:
A) Participants worked together to define the kind of industries the government considers
important to focus. It was noted that all types of industries, including small, medium and
large, are equally important because they supplement each other at certain stages. Thus,
the growth of agriculture- led industry is interdependent.
B) Small Industries Development Organization (SIDO) is considered important in the
structure of agriculture led industry. It was then discussed on how the organization
facilitates the agro-industry based economy. It was noted that the organization plays
roles in two aspects, including technology development, and triggering industrial
development in Tanzania through transforming agricultural products into saleable
products. One of the on-going innovations launched by SIDO is “One District One
Product (ODOP)” with 90% agro based technology.
C) Institutional and sector involvement in the agriculture-led industry is another important
aspect in the agriculture value chain. Effective coordination of the policies and legal
frameworks, and facilitation among collaborating entities, lead towards successful
growth of the industrial led economy. The question here was how effective and efficient
ministries, institutions, and local government authorities are in collaborating with private
sector and other actors to exploit the emerging opportunities in the agro-industry
sector.
D) The government should set aside specific zones and infrastructure facilities to process
agricultural produce for the key priority crops. Failure to comply with the regulatory
bodies including TFDA and TBS is due to the lack of qualified areas for such
investments. Therefore, TIC, EPZA, SIDO and LGAs should set aside appropriate land
and desired infrastructure to process agriculture and livestock produce.
24
E) Manpower availability during industrial production is necessary. The technical and artisan
labor force is currently lacking in the country. Higher learning institutions should
embark to train technicians and artisans, instead of training top level managers who
cannot serve the entire requirements of the industrial sector;
F) Entrepreneurial thinking and practices is key to the entire chain of agro-processing.
There was more emphasis on developing entrepreneurial thinking among local people to
effectively plan and set their target. Participants were keen to know how the
government is strategically working on policy setting, arrangement and allocation of
special areas for SMEs in the country.
G) There were also concerns over the multiple regulations behind industrialization. Long
procedures imposed by the regulatory bodies, particularly TBS and TFDA, have led to
the failure of some domestic enterprises in establishment stages. Licensing mechanisms
of the two institutions should be simplified and affordable to SMEs. Promotion will
enable SMEs to grow, and contribute significantly in creating employment and economic
growth. These factors should be sorted out along with the tax burden to achieve an
industrialized economy.
H) Bureaucracy, nepotism and corruption at various levels were determined as major
obstacles facing the startup of business enterprises in Tanzania. The MITI in
collaboration with appropriate institutions TRA, PCCB, BRELA and LGAs, should take
strong initiatives to tackle these obstacles to achieve successful private sector
involvement in the industrialization process.
I) There is a need to improve the marketing system to enable the production of quality
products that meet appropriate standards, and withstand competition from local
producers, from and within the EAC and international markets. Strengthening value
chain and productivity without efficient strategies may not yield the anticipated results.
J) Since Tanzania has the third largest cattle herd in Africa, participants were concerned
with how development of livestock and livestock products have been exploited to
enhance the value chain within the agro industry strata, and how the public and private
sector are involved in the entire structure of livestock industry.
K) The government through Local Government Authorities (LGAs) should allocate specific
areas for livestock to mitigate conflicts between pastoralists and farmers. This will
create an environment that will exploit untapped potentials of the livestock sector in the
agro-industry value chain.
L) There is a need for confidentiality in matters related to ongoing strategies in
industrialization. Participants underscored that ongoing initiatives to industrialize should
not be the public agenda in the media, since it may likely subject the country in
economic sabotage from the most industrialized competitors who currently enjoy the
large share of the existing local and the regional market. Participants noted that ongoing
support and assistance in undertaking statistics and feasibility for the domestic industries
should be conducted carefully since it impinges on national security.
25
M) A sense of obligation and accountability for every actor, whether an individual or an
entity was emphasized to drive a sustainable and a meaningful economy.
N) There was a concern from participants with regard to modalities for allocating areas for
agro-industry investment. Ministry staff explained that all the necessary arrangements,
directives and requirements have been set by the Industrial Support and Promotion
department under Ministry of Trade and Investment (MITI).
O) There is a lot of untapped potential in the aquaculture and fisheries subsectors that was
not featured in the agenda for the meeting. Investment in these areas is a multimillion
dollar business that the country is currently losing.
P) Beekeeping contribution in the agriculture sector should also be given considerable
attention. In order to ensure substantial productivity, the role of insect pollinators
especially honeybees is very important. Effective strategies should be developed to
enhance contribution of the beekeeping sub-sector in agricultural productivity and as
potential livelihood options.
Q) Manpower for extension services should be prepared to cope with the anticipated
transformation in the agriculture industry. Placement of appropriate extension staff
should be maintained in all agricultural value chains. Staff should be equipped with
cutting edge information, including most of the emerging and advanced innovations in
modern agriculture.
R) The government is advised to consider the most feasible way of protecting the domestic
industries, a concept that is likely similar to ‘import substitution’ industrialization that
contributed in the collapse of the local industries in the past.

4.2 Key Lessons and Recommendations
The following are recommendations of participants on issues that need to be addressed and key
lessons from the 2016 ANSAF’s learning event:
4.2.1 Outstanding Issues to Address
On Organization of the Learning Event
• ANSAF needs to collect expectations of each participant before they attend the
workshop
• More time should be allocated for the learning event in future. Two days are not
sufficient.
• Other ministries such as the Ministry of Lands and Human Settlements, TAMISEM, and
the Ministry of Water should be invited in future events.
• Improve time management in future events.
• Farmers at the grass root level should be invited and included in stakeholders’
coordination forums.
• The learning event should be held every year.
On Presentations
• Beekeeping should be considered as a priority sub sector and should be included in
presentations within the event program.
• Reduce the number of presentations in order to have few papers with substantive issues
and allow more time for deep discussions among participants.
• Presentations on issues to do with fisheries should be considered in future.
• Have more group discussions to ensure that all participants get the opportunity to share
their views.
On Improving Event Outcomes
• The government should improve and harmonize policies such as taxation, licenses and
others.
• ANSAF needs to organize media events to give feedback on progress made in the
implementation of resolutions segment and recommendation segment of the learning
event.
• Put in place clear strategies to help small scale farmers.
• Strengthen agro marketing strategies and policies.
35
• Solicit commitment to implementation of agreed issues or recommendations.
• Strengthen public private partnership in the sector and familiarize the concept to key
players.
• Strengthen vertical and horizontal linkages between farmers, local government and
central government in order to transform the industrial sector.
• Formation of a unit or any other sub-entity which can coordinate and monitor
implementation of all activities related to issues raised during the learning event.
• Make sure all the recommendations discussed are implemented.
• Improving coordination of public, private and donor strategies to support SMEs
• TCCIA should be reminded of its responsibilities.
• There is a need to enable smallholder famers to change their mindset from relying on
direct support.
4.2.2 Key Lessons Learned
• Industrializing Tanzania is possible if the proper environment exists.
• There is a need to improve sector coordination and have specific policies on the agro
industry.
• We should identify what type of industries we need as a country.
• Everyone has a key role to play and we need to invest on improving SMEs.
• All meetings set should address concrete issue of industrialization.
• Agro-industrialization is the key for stallholder farmer development.
• Coordination between sectors should be strengthened.
• A conducive economic environment is required for the country to industrialize.
• Improve business environment by improving regulation to facilitate investment and
trade.
• Industrialization process needs a firm commitment by both government and the private
sector.
• The industrialization process is possible if there is political will and if key players fulfill
their roles.
• Stakeholders in the government should be organized and the private sector should be
strengthened.
• Producers and processors need to work together.
• The agricultural professionals at the MALF should be the key advisors on all matters
related to agricultural industrialization.
36
• The agricultural sector in general remains relatively uncoordinated.
• The government should demonstrate more effort in empowering small farmers.
• The government leaders and practitioners in the agriculture need to change their mind
set towards the agricultural-led industrialization in Tanzania.
• Team work from all sectors is important. We should not rush on deciding what type of
industries need to be built in the country, but rather look into and work on existing
challenges first.
• Leveraging agriculture-led industrialization is important towards industrial-based
economic growth and poverty reduction. There is a need to strengthen the relevant
policies and strategies, and improve the coordination of the key stakeholders in the
agricultural sector.
