  • Managing Natural Resources in the West Usambara Mountains: a Glimmer of Hope in the Horizon Jeremias G
    Managing natural resources in the West Usambara Mountains: A glimmer of hope in the horizon Jeremias G. Mowo 1, Stephen T. Mwihomeke 2 and Justin B. Mzoo 3 Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security, Tanzania1, 3 Tanzania Forest Research Institute, Tanzania 2 2002 Keywords: mountains, highlands, forests, natural resource management, policies, farmers, Africa, Tanzania. Please see the full list of authors under Notes to readers at the end of this article. Abstract Past efforts in the management of natural resources in the West Usambara Mountains have not been successful mainly because the approaches were top – down and did not consider local communities important in natural resource management. Current initiatives active in the area have shown that participatory approaches involving all stakeholders as well as empowering local communities to take charge of natural resource management have more chances of success. Different biophysical, socio-economic, institutional and policy opportunities exist that can be exploited to attain sustainable natural resources management in the area. Scaling up of experiences obtained so far, exploiting indigenous knowledge on conservation, improvement in the information flow and market infrastructure and establishment of appropriate policies and by laws on natural resource management are some of the strategies for the way forward in attaining sustainable natural resource management in the West Usambara Mountains. Introduction The West Usambara Mountain ranges in North East Tanzania, forms part of the Eastern Arc Mountains. With elevation ranging from 900 – 2250 meters above the sea level they occupy about 80 % of Lushoto District in Tanga Region. More than 80 % of the population of Lushoto District (estimated at 526,278 (NRI, 2000)) reside in the West Usambara Mountains (Mwihomeke, 2002.

  • Observations on the Endemicity of Plague in Karatu and Ngorongoro, Northern Tanzania
    1 Tanzania Health Research Bulletin (2006), Vol. 8, No.1 Observations on the endemicity of plague in Karatu and Ngorongoro, northern Tanzania B.S. KILONZO1* , T.J. MBISE2, D.C. MWALIMU3 and L. KINDAMBA1 1Sokoine University of Agriculture, Box 3110, Morogoro, Tanzania 2Tropical Pesticides Research Institute, Box 3024, Arusha, Tanzania 3Ministry of Health, Box 9083, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania Abstract: Commensal and field rodents and wild small carnivores were live-trapped in five villages of Karatu district and one settlement in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area in Ngorongoro district in Tanzania. Blood samples were taken and serologically tested for plague, using the Blocking ELISA technique. Some domestic dogs and cats in the Karatu villages were aseptically bled and similarly tested for plague. Fleas were collected from the examined animals and from randomly selected residential houses. A total of 241 rodents, 1 Crocidura spp, 43 dogs, 12 cats and 4 slender mongooses were involved in the survey. Of the rodents, 14.5% were infested with fleas, which comprised of Xenopsylla brasiliensis (45.8%) and Dinopsyllus lypusus (54.2%), with an overall population density of 0.2 fleas/animal. Thirty one (72.1%) of the dogs were infested with fleas, all of which were Ctenocephalides spp. Thirty five (63.3%) houses were infested with fleas whose population was composed of Ctenocephalides spp, Pulex irritans, Tunga penetrans and Echinophaga gallinacea. Infected rodents were found in all the villages while the infected dog was found at Rhotia-Kati. Nineteen (11%) of the rodents and one (2%) dog harboured specific plague antibodies. It was broadly concluded that sylvatic plague was endemic in Karatu district and Ngorongoro Conservation Area and that outbreaks of the disease can occur in the area any time if and when relevant conditions become favourable.

  • Proceedings of the Workshop on Developing Research and Development Strategies for Smallholders Tea Sector in Muheza, Korogwe and Lushoto Districts
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE WORKSHOP ON DEVELOPING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES FOR SMALLHOLDERS TEA SECTOR IN MUHEZA, KOROGWE AND LUSHOTO DISTRICTS By D. M. Ndamugoba, A. W. Nyanga and E.F. Simbua Workshop proceedings for Smallholder’s Tea Sector in the Usambaras ii TTU Working Document No. 5 August 2000 Workshop proceedings for Smallholder’s Tea Sector in the Usambaras iii FOREWORD It is becoming increasingly clear that the revival of the smallholder tea industry in Tanzania will need consolidated efforts by all the players. Dialogue between all the stakeholders is the first step in that direction. “Developing Research and Development Strategies for Smallholders Tea Sector in Muheza, Korogwe and Lushoto Districts” was the theme of the workshop that was conducted in Korogwe town, Korogwe district, on 28th and 29th February 2000. These proceedings are the outcome of the deliberations at the workshop. This workshop is the second in the series of similar workshops to be conducted by TRIT through TTU on regular basis in all key smallholder tea-growing areas of Tanzania. The first was held at Makambako, Njombe, on 7th and 8th December 1999 for the Mufindi, Njombe and Rungwe tea growing areas, Southern Tanzania. Our goal is to work with all interested parties in order to improve the performance of the Tanzania tea industry in general, and the whole Smallholder tea sector in particular. We would like to thank the participants for accepting our invitations, some of them at short notice. We owe estimable thanks to the Regional Commissioner, Tanga, Honourable Captain George Mkuchika and the District Commissioner, Korogwe for sparing time to be with us at the workshop.
