Specific objectives underlying the study were to: (1) assess coffee production trend for the past 10 years from July 2003 to July 2013, (2) to identify and analyze impacts of climate change on coffee production among coffee producers in the district. The study also aimed to: (3) identify common adaptation and coping strategies towards impacts of climate change on coffee production. A total of 140 respondents representing local community, government institutions and Cooperative unions were sampled using both simple random sampling and purposive sampling. Data were analyzed into simple descriptive statistics using Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 16 and Statistical Analytical System (SAS), Inc. (ver. 9. Results show that coffee production trend in ten sampled wards was highly variable across years (P<0, 0001) and wards (P<0, 0001). Coffee production potential in the district can be grouped into zones of high, medium, and low coffee production potential. Identified impacts of climate change affecting coffee production include prolonged dry spell (13.7%), drought (18.1%), strong winds (7%), elevated temperatures (16.1%), poor distribution of rainfall (17.8%) storms (10%) and insect pests and diseases infestation (17.3%), Available climate adaptation strategies among coffee farming community include adoption of new technology (20.9%), adoption of sustainable agricultural production techniques (22.7%), and diversification and intensification of production systems (20.6%) could be concluded that adaptation and coping, strategies to impacts of climate change on coffee production trend are iv fundamental to achieving sustainable livelihood among coffee farming communities. It is further recommended that, improved institutional capacities through training on adaptive strategies and planning to address impacts of climate change are very crucial among coffee farming communities. v TABLE OF CONTENTS CERTIFICATION ........................................................................................................ i DECRELATION AND COPYRIGHT ........................................................................ ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT .......................................................................................... iii ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................ iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ............................................................................................ vi LIST OF TABLES ..................................................................................................... xii LIST OF FIGURES .................................................................................................. xiii LIST OF PLATES .................................................................................................... xiv LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS/ ACCRONYMS ........................................................ xv CHAPTER ONE ........................................................................................................ 1 1.0 INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................ 1 1.1 Background information ........................................................................................ 2 1.2 Statement of the Problem ....................................................................................... 4 1.3 Research Objectives ............................................................................................... 5 1.3.1 General objective ................................................................................................ 5 1.3. 2 Specific objectives ............................................................................................. 5 1.4 Research Questions ................................................................................................ 6 1.5 Significance of the study ........................................................................................ 6 1.6 Limitations of the study ......................................................................................... 6 1.7 Scope of the study .................................................................................................. 7 CHAPTER TWO ....................................................................................................... 8 2.0 LITERATURE REVIEW .................................................................................... 8 2.1.1 Definition of key terms ....................................................................................... 8 2.1.1.1 Weather ............................................................................................................ 8 2.1.1.2 Climate ............................................................................................................. 8 2.1.1.3 Climate change ................................................................................................. 9 2.1.1.4 Climate change scenarios ................................................................................. 9 2.1.1.5 Climate variability ............................................................................................ 9 2.1.1.6 Green house gases ............................................................................................ 9 vi 2.1.1.7 Green house effect.......................................................................................... 10 2.1.1.8 Global warming .............................................................................................. 10 2.1.1.9 Impacts of climate change .............................................................................. 10 2.1.1.10 Vulnerability ................................................................................................ 10 2.1.1.11 Climate vulnerability ...................................................................................

  • Changing Priorities in Refugee Protection: the Rwandan Repatriation from Tanzania
    NEW ISSUES IN REFUGEE RESEARCH Working Paper No. 53 Changing priorities in refugee protection: the Rwandan repatriation from Tanzania Beth Elise Whitaker Department of Political Science George Washington University Washington, DC USA E-mail: [email protected] February 2002 These working papers are issued by the Evaluation and Policy Analysis Unit, and provide a means for UNHCR staff, consultants, interns and associates to publish the preliminary results of their research on refugee-related issues. The papers are written in a personal capacity and do not represent the official views of UNHCR. They are also available online under ‘Publications’ on the UNHCR website, http://www.unhcr.org ISSN 1020-7473 Introduction On December 5, 1996, the Tanzanian government and the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) issued a joint statement that read, in part, “all Rwandese refugees in Tanzania are expected to return home by 31 December 1996.”1 That same day, UNHCR distributed information sheets to refugees about the repatriation exercise, including the immediate suspension of economic and agricultural activities in the camps. The camps had been home to more than half a million Rwandan refugees since 1994, when they fled civil war and an advancing rebel army at home. They were eventually joined in Tanzania by nearly 500,000 refugees from Burundi and Zaire.2 As a haven of peace in a troubled region, Tanzania had long hosted refugees from neighboring countries. By December 1996, however, patience seemed to have run out. 3 Upon receiving the repatriation announcement, many refugees wanted extra time to see how the integration of returnees from Zaire would unfold within Rwanda.4 Several wrote a letter to Tanzanian President Benjamin Mkapa requesting him to reconsider the December 31 deadline.

While devastation from these disasters was documented in local reporting, Armada was only able to find cursory indicators of underlying sentiments that could lead to civil unrest or violence in the area. These indicators include Kagera government officials urging locals to remain calm and to not blame leaders for a perceived slow rebuilding process, arrests of government officials for trying to steal charitable donations in the aftermath of the earthquake, and concerns of a potential famine in the area.

  • 1 Background Information on Natural Resources in the Kagera River Basin
    Background Information on Natural Resources in the Kagera River Basin Location and Extent of Kagera Basin The Kagera River basin is the upper part of, and makes up 75% of the Lake Victoria basin and forms the western border between Rwanda and Tanzania. It encloses a total area of 59,700km2 spread over four countries: Burundi (23%), Rwanda (34%), Tanzania (35%, 20,765km2) and Uganda (8%). The Kagera River is the most important incoming river of Lake Victoria. The inflow into Lake Victoria from the Kagera River is estimated at 7.5 km3 per year, of which 0.5 km3 is generated within Tanzania (FAO, xxxx). The land and open water surface in each district draining into the Kagera River is illustrated in Table 1. Climate The climate in the basin is moderated by altitude relief and many water bodies. It ranges from sub- humid to semi-arid with a bimodal rainfall with two dry and two rainy seasons per year, with the wettest months in April and November. Definitions of drylands and semi-arid zones vary according to the purpose of the classification, for example by FAO, UNCCD and UNCBD: Under FAOs agro-ecological zones classification, which takes into account the growing period: Drylands include arid and semi-arid lands, as well as hyper-arid “desert” areas, . Typically, arid areas receive less than 200mm of winter rainfall annually or less than 400mm of summer rainfall, while semi-arid areas receive 200-500mm of winter rainfall or 400-600mm of summer rainfall. Drylands are defined as areas where mean annual precipitation is less than half the potential evapotranspiration.

  • Factors Influencing Choice Decision for Marketing
    G.J.B.A.H.S.,Vol.6(2):1-10 (April-June, 2017) ISSN: 2319 – 5584 FACTORS INFLUENCING CHOICE DECISION FOR MARKETING CHANNELS BY COFFEE FARMERS IN KARAGWE DISTRICT, TANZANIA Gilbert Jossam Ntimbaa* & Adam Meshack Akyoob a,bSokoine University of Agriculture (SUA), School of Agricultural Economics and business studies (SAEBS), Box 3007, Morogoro, Tanzania *Corresponding Autor Abstract Marketing channel choice is among the most complex and challenging decisions facing farmers. This study therefore assessed the factors influencing choice decision of marketing channels by coffee farmers in Karagwe District of Tanzania. A cross-sectional research design was employed to collect data from 120 smallholder coffee farmers using semi-structured questionnaire, participatory group discussions and key informants interviews. The data were analysed using qualitative analytical techniques such as descriptive statistics as well as quantitative methods such as regression analysis. The Multinomial Logit Model was employed to determine the factors influencing farmers’ choice for marketing channel. The study found that farmers sell coffee through three main marketing channels namely; Rural Primary Societies (35%), Private Coffee Buyers (46.7%) and Village buyers (18.3%). The Model results show that three factors significantly influenced the farmer’s marketing channel choice namely; Age of household head, price of dry coffee cherry and distance to selling center from homestead. Further results showed that there were wide variations of farm gate prices between farmers selling in different market channels. The study recommends the restructuring of cooperative societies, introduction of formal credit facilities to provide favourable credit to farmers and the establishment of more rural primary cooperative societies’ and private coffee buyers’ buying centers in the remote villages to reduce transportation costs.

Every bad thing has its good side. Swahili saying Introduction The plight of refugees from Rwanda, Burundi, and Democratic Republic of Congo made international headlines between 1993 and 1998. Throughout central Africa, roughly 3.4 million refugees crossed international borders, 2.3 million persons became internally displaced, and 600,000 exiles returned to their countries of origin. In this context, nearly 1.3 million people sought refuge in western Tanzania. Kagera and Kigoma regions have a total Tanzanian population of nearly 2.5 million. The refugee influx therefore represented an overall population increase in these regions of more than 50 percent, while in some areas refugees outnumbered locals five to one.1 Although some refugees left after a few months, others stayed for several years.

  • Why Do Smallholder Famers in Four Tanzanian Districts Continue with Coffee Production Despite Fluctuating Prices?
    Journal of Agriculture and Life Sciences Vol. 5, No. 2, December 2018 doi:10.30845/jals.v5n2p3 Why Do Smallholder Famers In Four Tanzanian Districts Continue With Coffee Production Despite Fluctuating Prices? David Gongwe Mhando Associate Research Professor College of Social Sciences and Humanities Sokoine University of Agriculture Post Box 3035, Morogoro Tanzania NtenguaSelemanMdoe Professor School of Agricultural Economic and Business Studies Sokoine University of Agriculture Post Box 3005, Morogoro Tanzania Abstract Coffee production and marketing in Tanzania faces many challenges; price and weather variability, limited access to agricultural inputs, poor extension services, lack of irrigation, lack of credit facilities and land shortage which have decreased their capacity to consistently meet the supply of quality and required quantity. Despite of the challenges, coffee continues to be the main source of income to smallholder farmers. The study explores why coffee is still the most important crop to small scale farmers in four districts despite of the challenges they face. Household survey was conducted to 189 randomly selected coffeefarmers. The study found out that despite of the production and marketing challenges, coffee farming has remained a source of reliable income, a traditional crop and cultural symbol. Conclusions are reached that gaining from coffee production provides the means of investment to other food crops. Keywords: coffee, smallholder farmers, fluctuating prices Background Information There are two types of coffee produced in the world: Coffea arabica (Arabica coffee) and Coffeacanephora (var. Robusta). While coffee production is concentrated in the southern hemisphere, it is consumed more in the northern hemisphere. During the 2016/17 season, global coffee production was reported to be 158.93 million bags: 98.84 million bags (62%) of Arabica and 60.10 million bags (38%) of Robusta.

    United Republic of Tanzania BUKOBA MUNICIPAL COUNCIL SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE, 2015 May 2018 United Republic of Tanzania BUKOBA MUNICIPAL COUNCIL SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE, 2015 Jointly prepared by National Bureau of Statistics, Ministry of Finance and Planning, and Bukoba Municipal Council National Bureau of Statistics Bukoba Municipal Council Dar es Salaam Kagera Region May, 2018 Foreword The goals of Tanzania’s Development Vision 2025 are in line with United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030. Among the major goals includes achieving high quality livelihood for the people; to achieve food security; to develop a strong and competitive economy; to combat inequality and empower all women and girls. To manage monitoring the progress in achieving these goals, there is need for availability of timely and accurate statistical information at all levels. Problems occurring in both urban and rural areas are many and challenging. Experience shows that delivery of quality social and economic services requires a continuous and sustainable improvement of strategies through community participation from time to time. Indeed, it must be admitted that high primary school enrolment rates recently attained have to be sustained by using available resources and so is the policy of making sure that all pupils who pass standard seven examinations join Form One. The food situation is still precarious and infant and maternal mortality rates, while showing signs of decline, continue to be high. Unemployment in rural areas triggers mass migration of youths to the already overcrowded urban centers. Health problems due to HIV/AIDS pandemic have been quite severe among the economically active population which hinders efforts to advance smoothly into the 21st century of science and technology.

  • The CSAL Model: Overview and Application in the Karagwe District of Tanzania by Associates of the CSAL Network
    The CSAL Model: Overview and Application in the Karagwe District of Tanzania by associates of the CSAL Network Introduction On the premise of improving social order, economic justice, and democratic governance in the world, an international network is forming called the CSAL Network, where CSAL is an acronym for Community Supported Agroforestry-based Learning. The term agroforestry refers to integrated ways to combine trees and shrubs with crops and livestock to increase the value of land that is not optimal for growing food and to benefit a diversity of life.1 The CSAL Network is envisaged as a virtual organization of individuals whose interests and expertise can contribute to the mission of Community Supported Agroforestry-based Learning (CSAL): scientists, agriculturalists, educators, mentors of youthful business, finance experts, and others who wish to create opportunities for research, study, entrepreneurship, and lifetime careers in the interlocking disciplines of agroforestry. The associates of this Network2 believe that many students and teachers with ambitions to lead social change will be choosing this study area as fundamental to surmounting the major plights of our planet, namely the interconnected problems of food, energy, water, and climate change, in addition to jobs and income. By building a global virtual organization of experts in the areas of business, forestry, agriculture, engineering, agro-ecology, marketing, permaculture, and related fields, the Network envisages a growing capacity to improve community wellness at the most local level through (our motto) “learning integrated with earning.” Native (or indigenous) peoples around the world, having well-defined lands, deep cultural roots in the land, and natural resources that they aim to protect and develop, are in a position to be pioneers of the forthcoming global struggle to preserve, rebuild, and enhance the planet’s natural environment in the face of challenges arising from human degradation.
