The study was carried out in four villages of Geita District, namely Nyakamwaga, Ntono, Imalampaka and Buyagu. The study was associated with the use of improved inputs like inorganic fertilizer, seeds and pesticides in the study area with its adoption rate in improving agricultural productivity. A sample size of 100 respondents was selected using random sampling and purposive sampling techniques. Primary data were collected using interviews, observation, survey and Focus Group Discussions. Descriptive statistics were applied in analyzing data, Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 16.0 and MS excel computer packages as tools for quantitative data were used to obtain frequencies and percentages which were presented in tables. The findings from the study reveal that the productivity per acre in maize and rice increased, for instance there was great changes in maize productivity from 4bags/acre to 16bags – 28bags/acre. While in rice changes were from 13bags/acre to 35bags – 40bags/acre. Also, input vouchers enabled smallholder farmers to access improved agricultural inputs closer to the village or ward agro-dealers at subsidized prices. The study recommends that actors in agricultural sector should look for possibility of lowering farmers’ level of contribution to the voucher value to be less than 50% due to existence of poverty in most of smallholder farmers. Furthermore, smallholder farmers should be encouraged to form associations of crop producers for their agricultural produces. v TABLE OF CONTENTS CERTIFICATION ........................................................................................................ i DECLARATION AND COPRIGHT .......................................................................... ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ......................................................................................... iii DEDICATION ........................................................................................................... iv ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................ v TABLE OF CONTENTS ........................................................................................... vi LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS ..................................................................................... x CHAPTER ONE: BACKGROUND INFORMATION ......................................... 1 1.1 Introduction ........................................................................................................... 1 1.2 Background Information ....................................................................................... 2 1.3 Statement of the Problem ...................................................................................... 7 1.4 Objectives of the Study ....................................................................................... 10 1.4.1 General Objective ............................................................................................. 10 1.4.2 Specific Objectives ........................................................................................... 10 1.4.3 Research Questions .......................................................................................... 10 1.5 Significance of the Study ..................................................................................... 11 1.6 Scope and Limitation of the Study ...................................................................... 11 CHAPTER TWO: LITERATURE REVIEW ...................................................... 13 2.1 Introduction ......................................................................................................... 13 2.2 Definitions of Key Terms .................................................................................... 13 2.3 Theoretical Review .............................................................................................. 14 2.3.1 The New Institutional Economics Theory ........................................................ 14 2.3.2 Structural Constructivism Theory .................................................................... 15 2.4 Empirical Review ................................................................................................ 17 2.4.1 The Universal Subsidy Programmes in Sub-Saharan Africa ........................... 17 2.4.2 The Market Smart Input Subsidy Programmes in Sub-Saharan Africa ........... 19 2.4.3 Case Studies of Market Smart Subsidies in Sub-Saharan Africa ..................... 21 2.4.3.1 Market Smart Subsidies in Malawi ............................................................... 21 2.4.3.2 Market Smart Subsidies in Zambia ............................................................... 24 2.4.4 Improved Agricultural Technologies ............................................................... 27 vi 2.4.5 An Overview of Input Farm Input Supply in Tanzania .................................... 29 2.4.6 The National Agricultural Input Scheme (NAIVS) .......................................... 31 2.4.7 Significance of Input Vouchers ........................................................................ 33 2.4.8 Factors on Agricultural Productivity of Smallholder Farmers ......................... 34 2.4.9 Agriculture Sector in Tanzania ......................................................................... 37 2.4.10 Maize and Rice Production and Productivity ................................................. 38 2.5 Research Gap ....................................................................................................... 39 2.6 Conceptual Framework ....................................................................................... 40 CHAPTER THREE: RESEARCH METHODOLOGY ...................................... 42 3.1 Introduction ........................................................................................................

Community-wide action to Cassava brown streak virus manage them has not been attempted since a successful cassava mosaic disease control programme in the 1930s/ Collective action 40 s in Uganda. A pilot initiative to investigate the effectiveness of community phytosanitation for managing Epidemiology cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) was implemented from 2013 to 2016 in two communities in coastal GIS (Mkuranga) and north-western (Chato) Tanzania. CBSD incidence in local varieties at the outset was > 90%, Tanzania which was typical of severely affected regions of Tanzania. Following sensitization and monitoring by locally- Whitefly recruited taskforces, there was effective community-wide compliance with the initial requirement to replace local CBSD-infected material with newly-introduced disease-free planting material of improved varieties. The transition was also supported by the free provision of additional seed sources, including maize, sweet potato, beans and cowpeas. Progress of the initiative was followed in randomly-selected monitoring fields in each of the two locations. Community phytosanitation in both target areas produced an area-wide reduction in CBSD incidence, which was sustained over the duration of the programme.

  • Population Growth, Internal Urbanization in Tanzania, 1967-2012
    Working paper Population Growth, Internal Migration and Urbanization in Tanzania, 1967-2012 Phase 2 (Final Report) Hugh Wenban-Smith September 2015 When citing this paper, please use the title and the following reference number: C-40211-TZA-1 IGC_Ph2_Final_270515 POPULATION GROWTH, INTERNAL MIGRATION AND URBANISATION IN TANZANIA, 1967- 2012: Phase 2 (Final Report) Hugh Wenban-Smith1 Abstract Tanzania, like other African countries is urbanising rapidly. But whereas in Asia (particularly China) urbanisation is a powerful engine of growth, this is rarely the case in Africa. The IGC project on ‘Population Growth, Internal Migration and Urbanisation in Tanzania’ investigates this issue with a view to better outcomes in future. In the first phase of the project, data from all 5 post-Independence censuses was used to track the growth and movement of people between rural and urban areas across mainland Tanzania’s 20 regions. By comparing actual populations with the populations that would be expected if each area grew at the national rate, the project developed measures to compare the experience of different regions. In this second phase, we seek to relate this data to developments in the Tanzanian economy, first at national level and then at regional level. At national level, we note that the rural population is now three times as large as it was 50 years ago, greatly increasing the pressure on land and other natural resources such as water. At regional level, although the evidence is not good enough to support strong conclusions, we find indications that ‘Rural Push’ (as measured by density of rural population to cultivated land) was important in 1978-88 and 1988-2002; being distant from Dar es Salaam however reduces rural out-migration.

  • Estimating the Cost Efficiency and Profitability Among
    ESTIMATING THE COST EFFICIENCY AND PROFITABILITY AMONG COTTON SMALLHOLDER FARMERS IN CHATO DISTRICT BERINO MSIGWA A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN AGRICULTURAL AND APPLIED ECONOMICS OF SOKOINE UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE. MOROGORO, TANZANIA. 2019 ii ABSTRACT Agriculture is an important sector in developing countries serving most people in rural areas as their main means of livelihood. About 84% of agriculture activities in Tanzania are done by smallholder farmers. Cotton is an important cash crop for many countries in the world. In Tanzania cotton is a major cash crop in the western cotton growing area, which includes Mwanza, Shinyanga, Mara, Simiyu, Geita, Tabora and Singida regions. The cotton subsector is known to involve expensive activities to be undertaken compared to other crops. Farmers in cotton farming areas are characterized by having limited access to inputs like fertilizer, pesticides and herbicides due to widespread poverty among them. For smallholder farmers to get profit from cotton production, efficiency in allocating their resources is crucial. The objective of this study was to assess whether cotton producers in Chato District get profit from cotton production and whether they produce at the minimum cost. A multistage sampling procedure was employed to select 150 respondents (134 males headed households and 16 female headed households) from Chato District. Descriptive statistics, net profit analysis and a Cobb Douglas stochastic frontier model were computed. The mean net profit realized was 454 422 TZS/ha. The minimum and maximum net farm income was -530 938 and 2 399 775 TZS/ha respectively.
