2019 Tanzania in Figures The United Republic of Tanzania 2019 TANZANIA IN FIGURES National Bureau of Statistics Dodoma June 2020 H. E. Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli President of the United Republic of Tanzania “Statistics are very vital in the development of any country particularly when they are of good quality since they enable government to understand the needs of its people, set goals and formulate development programmes and monitor their implementation” H.E. Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli the President of the United Republic of Tanzania at the foundation stone-laying ceremony for the new NBS offices in Dodoma December, 2017. What is the importance of statistics in your daily life? “Statistical information is very important as it helps a person to do things in an organizational way with greater precision unlike when one does not have. In my business, for example, statistics help me know where I can get raw materials, get to know the number of my customers and help me prepare products accordingly. Indeed, the numbers show the trend of my business which allows me to predict the future. My customers are both locals and foreigners who yearly visit the region. In June every year, I gather information from various institutions which receive foreign visitors here in Dodoma. With estimated number of visitors in hand, it gives me ample time to prepare products for my clients’ satisfaction. In terms of my daily life, Statistics help me in understanding my daily household needs hence make proper expenditures.” Mr. Kulwa James Zimba, Artist, Sixth street Dodoma.”. What is the importance of statistics in your daily life? “Statistical Data is useful for development at family as well as national level because without statistics one cannot plan and implement development plans properly. -

Accessibility of Resources by Gender: the Case of Morogoro Region in Tanzania
4 Accessibility of Resources by Gender: The Case of Morogoro Region in Tanzania Christine G. Ishengoma Introduction: The Concept of Gender Gender has been defined in a variety of ways, both in research and generally. While it usually refers to men and women, it encapsulates more than the differ- ences between them. Early definitions use gender to describe social and biologi- cal differences between women and men. It is particularly applied to social mean- ings of biological sex differences or behavioural aspects of men and women shaped by social forces (Riley 1997). In this study, we use a definition by Riley (1997) focusing on the socio-eco- nomic aspects of gender. Three major points emanate from Riley’s definition. First, gender is a social institution. It is central to the way a society is organised and, like the family, religion, race and other social institutions, affects the role men and women play in a society. Gender also establishes patterns of behaviour through interaction with other institutions. Secondly, gender involves differences in power. Gender orders social rela- tionships, giving some individuals greater power than others. It affects both ‘power to’ and ‘power over’. ‘Power to’ refers to the ability to act in society and often requires access to social resources such as education, money, land and time. Individuals with ‘power over’ are able to assert their wishes and goals even in the face of opposition from others. In every society, the roles assumed by women and men determine their opportunities and privileges. Women usually have less ‘power to inherit land, for example. -

To Sell Or Not to Sell – Maasai Milk Marketing in Ngerengere, Tanzania
African Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics Volume 9 Number 2 pages 106-118 To sell or not to sell – Maasai milk marketing in Ngerengere, Tanzania Tim K Loos* University of Hohenheim (490a), Stuttgart, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Manfred Zeller University of Hohenheim (490a), Stuttgart, Germany. E-mail: [email protected] *Corresponding author Abstract In Maasai culture, responsibilities and labour are divided between the genders. Men are in charge of the herd and thus control the main income source. Women take care of the family and are responsible for milking. Milk sales provide the women’s main income source. In this paper, using olmarei- (= household) and enkaji- (= sub-household) data from the milk catchment area of a collection centre in Ngerengere, Tanzania, we assess the potential impact of milk sales on enkaji income. We estimate the effect by employing propensity score-matching procedures. Our findings suggest that milk sellers earn significantly higher average income per capita than non-sellers. This appears to be especially true for enkajijik selling milk to other buyers rather than to the collection centre. Other buyers reach more remote areas, usually offer higher prices, but only purchase limited amounts of milk. The collection centre, on the other hand, is a guaranteed market with large capacity. Keywords: milk sales; income effect; propensity score matching; Maasai; Tanzania 1. Introduction Livestock are one of the major agricultural sub-sectors in Tanzania. Its contribution to the national gross domestic product is estimated at 4.7%, of which about one third is attributed to the dairy sector (URT 2012). -

Kilombero Plantations Limited
KILOMBERO PLANTATIONS LIMITED MNGETA FARM SQUATTER SURVEY REPORT Claude G. Mung’ong’o, PhD and Juma Kayonko, MSc Natural Resource Management Consultants P.O. Box 35097, Dar es Salaam FEBRUARY 2009 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION Background Located in Mngeta Division, Kilombero District, Mngeta Farm (5,818 ha) is owned by Kilombero Plantations Ltd (KPL), a public-private partnership between the Rufiji Basin Development Authority (RUBADA) and InfEnergy Tanzania Ltd. In 1986, the Government of Tanzania granted the farm area to the Korea Tanzania Agricultural Company (KOTACO), a Korea – Tanzania government partnership. KOTACO surveyed the farm, cleared the entire 5818 ha, and built 185 km of roads and approximately 290 km of drainage ditches. KOTACO farmed rice on approximately 2500 ha until 1993 when the Koreans left the project and handed over the farm equipment and infrastructure to RUBADA. From 1994 to 1999 the farm remained idle. Later in 1999 RUBADA contracted the farm to Kilombero Holding Company (KIHOCO) which never farmed more than 400 ha. KIHOCO fell 5 years behind in rent payments and was finally forced off the farm in August 2007. During the period of the farm’s idleness it attracted a gradual influx of subsistence squatters from different parts of Tanzania. It also attracted a high influx of livestock, especially from 2005 onwards. In December 2007, KPL began operations, re-clearing land and planting 641 ha of rice in early 2008. In September 2008 KPL completed the title transfer of Mngeta Farm. KPL is planting 3000 ha of rice in early 2009 and has targeted 5800 ha of rice in 2010. -
