  • Demystification of Administrative De-Linking: Farmers Access to Agricultural Extension Information and Service Delivery in Arumeru District, Tanzania

Accepted 27 September, 2018 This study examined the accessibility of agricultural extension information and service delivery to farmers during the implementation of administrative de-linking reform under Decentralisation by Devolution Policy. The study employed a cross-sectional research design. Data was collected from 390 respondents using semi- structured questionnaire. Quantitative data were analyzed through McNemars chi square test and paired t test where as qualitative data were analysed using content analysis. The findings revealed that, contrary to the administrative de-linking reforms objectives, farmers’ access to agricultural extension information and services delivery in the study area has remained critical. Findings show that farmers accessed more agricultural input, markets, financial services and information on agricultural technologies before administrative de-linking than after and it was statistically significant at p≤ 0.01. Moreover, high cost, long distance and shortage of extension staff were among limiting factors. Strengthening of local institution is recommended for improving farmers’ access to agricultural extension information and service delivery.

  • Economics of Indigenous Vegetable Marketing: a Case Study
    ECONOMICS OF INDIGENOUS VEGETABLE MARKETING: A CASE STUDY IN ARUMERU DISTRICT. BY FESTO EZEKIEL MARO A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULLFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS OF SOKOINE UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE. MOROGORO, TANZANIA. 2008 ii ABSTRACT Study objective was to analyze the marketing efficiency of indigenous vegetables in Arumeru district. Specifically to (i) identify the present marketing channels of Amaranthus, African nightshade and African eggplant and the role played by various market participants’ objectives were (ii) To examine the relative competitiveness of Amaranthus, African eggplant and African nightshade with the selected exotic vegetables grown in the study area. (iii) Determine price differences and market margin among various market participants and selected IVs. Structural Conduct Performance model showed Indigenous Vegetables (IV) have similar marketing channel with other selected crops except the occurrence of seasonal collectors. There was no producers or traders organization to influence market price. IV sellers concentration index showed there is possibility of oligopolistic behavior in African eggplant farmer’s sellers (CI=82.03%) since most of their revenues were obtained from selling to traders/transporters from other regions especially Dar-es-Salaam rather than Arusha city markets. Amaranthus and Africa nightshade sellers were found to have weak oligopolistic behavior since the concentration index was 38.92% and 36.7% respectively. From Gross Margin (GM) analysis the performances of IVs were competitive. African nightshade (Solanum aethiopicum) GM was higher (190 079.59 TSh) than selected exotic vegetables (Chinadese cabbage and spinach).
