Beekeeping for Poverty Reduction and Biodiversity Conservation
Bees for Development Journal 101 Beekeeping for poverty reduction and biodiversity conservation Angela R Mwakatobe, Tanzania Wildlife Research Institute, PO Box 661, Arusha, Tanzania Raphael M Machumu, Forestry Training Institute Olmotonyi, PO Box 943, Arusha, Tanzania Keywords: beeswax, honey, income generation, Manyoni District, Tanzania involved in the honey beer business and in producing equipment and protective clothing. For about 70% of beekeepers interviewed, income from Introduction selling bee products subsidised household economies by at least 30%. Beekeeping in Tanzania plays a major role in socio-economic development. It is an important source of income especially for Honey production communities living close to forests and woodlands (BID Journal 89, The major areas of honey production in Tanzania are Dodoma, Iringa, 2008). In Tanzania current honey and beeswax production stand at 3.5% of Singida and Tabora Regions (NWRC, 2007). Manyoni District has a high estimated potential figures (Mwakatobe & Mlingwa, 2005). This low beekeeping production potential (Table 2), as it was reported by Village production indicates an opportunity to increase beekeeping activities to Beekeeping Development Groups that income accrued per individual raise income and reduce poverty. Despite its significance, there is little beekeeper increased from an average US$150 (€112) in June 2000, to empirical evidence of the value of traditional beekeeping for income US$691 (€516) in June 2003. With an average of four beekeepers at generation. Our research aims to assess the contribution of traditional household level, income per household increased from US$450 (€336) to beekeeping to poverty reduction in Manyoni District. The results will US$2,764 (€2,064). -

Box 2100 1211 Geneva 2, Switzerland Tel: 41 22 791 6033 Fax: 41 22 791 6506 Appeal e-mail: [email protected] Coordinating Office Tanzania Food Relief Assistance – AFTZ61 Appeal Target: US$ 741,141 Geneva, 21 March 2006 Dear Colleagues, The latest Tanzanian government report on the food situation shows that from February to April, 3.76 million people - more than 10 percent of the country's population- will need 99,676 tonnes of maize food aid. According to the country's Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security the food deficit in Tanzania is linked to the failure of short rains between August and November 2005 which account for 30% of annual harvests in the country. A Rapid Vulnerability Assessment carried out by the government, WFP, and NGOs in early February identified 564,000 of the total impacted population as being destitute and in need of free food distribution. To date, the government of Tanzania has not declared a national emergency but WFP and NGOs are concerned that government resources are insufficient to meet the urgent needs of this vulnerable population. The long rainy season is now expected between March and May, but if it fails or comes too late, the number of people needing food relief could go up. ACT member the Christian Council of Tanzania (CCT) is appealing for assistance to provide food relief to approximately 80,500 of the most destitute people in seven regions in rural Tanzania, to be distributed through its member churches the Anglican Church of Tanzania (ACT), the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania (ELCT), the African Inland Church of Tanzania (AIC) and the Mennonite Church of Tanzania (MEN) stationed across the country. -

Uranium Contamination in Drinking Water and Foodstuffs in Bahi District, Central Tanzania
JCEE Volume 5 Issue 2 Uranium contamination in drinking water and foodstuffs in Bahi District, Central Tanzania Ernest M.M. Marwa1*, Zainab J. Mziray2, Bernard E. Chove2 and Abel K. Kaaya1 1Department of Soil Science, Sokoine University of Agriculture, P.O. Box 3008, Morogoro, Tanzania 2 Department of Food Science & Technology, Sokoine University of Agriculture, P.O. Box 3006, Morogoro, Tanzania *Corresponding author: [email protected]; Tel: +255 757 577351 Abstract A field survey was conducted in Bahi District in Central Tanzania to investigate uranium levels in drinking water and to evaluate its contamination in some foodstuffs as proxy to their safety for human and animal consumption. Regularly consumed cereal grains, cassava leaves, salt, soda ash, catfish, flamingo meat, surface and underground waters were randomly sampled in the district and analyzed using inductively coupled plasma - optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The study found extremely high levels of uranium in surface and underground waters of up to 1233µg L-1, a value that exceeds the World Health Organization standard of 30 µg L-1 by a factor of 41. Soda ash, which is locally consumed and some is exported, had a very high value of 1910 µgU kg-1. Finger millet grains, catfish and flamingo had 32, 17.98 and 31.78 µgU kg-1, respectively, values that were higher than the natural background level of 14 µgU kg-1 found in some common foodstuffs by the European Food Safety Authority. It was concluded that drinking water and consuming foodstuffs with high levels of uranium is endangering human and animal life in Bahi District. -

However, data to indicate the way men and women are affected by climate change are missing. A study to examine effects of climate change on agricultural production by sex was done in Bahi and Kondoa Districts, Dodoma region, Tanzania. Specifically the study analyzed perception of climate change and effects of climate change on agricultural production. A sample of 360 respondents, 12 focus groups of discussants and 78 key informants were consulted. Analysis of quantitative data involved descriptive statistics and qualitative data were analyzed by content analysis. Results showed that men and women perceived and were affected differently by climate change. -
