G.* The University of Dodoma, Department of Agricultural Economics, P.O. Box 395, Dodoma, Tanzania Kaserwa N. Tanzania Warehouse Licensing Board, P.O. Box 38093, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania Abstract: Marketing of crops in Tanzania has been undergoing change. Direct sales from farmers to traders and delivery to the Primary Cooperative Societies (PCS) were in practice at different points of time. Since 2007, the warehouse receipt system was introduced in Tanzania. The warehouse operators accept the deposit of crops in the warehouses and provide a receipt to the farmers through PCS and the farmers receive a part of the payments through bank financing based on these receipts. This study was conducted to assess whether Warehouse Receipt System has made any contribution in improving smallholder farmers ‘access to financial services. The study used cross sectional design where 100 smallholder farmers in Singida Rural district in Singida region were covered. Quantitative and qualitative techniques were used to analyze the data. The results showed that the motives that were used to influence smallholder farmers to join WRS included price, access to credit and access to market, although, most of the farmers participate into WRS to access credit for agricultural activities. Moreover, level of farming technologies adopted found to have increased significantly after joining the WRS. Based on these findings, it is recommended to increase sensitization efforts among the smallholder farmers in order to enable the larger spectrum of the community members becoming aware of the WRS practice.

Ingvar Andersson ;- Carolyn Hannan—Andersson I CE~ifl~Rfl ~Tei (C7~ ~1i1 -~ June ~984 Institute of Resource Assessment University of Oar es Salaam Box 35097 Oar es Salaam Tanzania ABSTRACT The water supply/sanitation/health situation in 3 villages in Singida Region was the focus of this study. The objective was to investigate general conditions and to identify the explicit needs of the communities. Relevant socio-economic data on production, livestock, ecological system, etc, is presented, as well as a historical overview of the developments in the water supply sector. Water-use patterns and standards of health, hygiene and sanitation were investigated in 75 households. An attempt was made to evaluate improvements to the water supply in two of the villages, i.e. the functioning of the supplies, the extent of utilization and the impact, e.g. on water use patterns, work burdens and general welfare and health. The effectiveness of the strategy for improving water supplies using shallow wellls with handpumps is assessed. The aspects of density and location of supply are stressed as crucial for the achievement of impact. An alternative strategy is suggested — the improvement of all traditional sources both for domestic and non-domestic uses (livestock and small vegetable gardens).

  • Does Scarcity Reduce Cooperation? Experimental Evidence from Rural Tanzania
    Development Economics Research Group Working Paper Series 04-2020 Does Scarcity Reduce Cooperation? Experimental Evidence from Rural Tanzania Gustav Agneman Paolo Falco Exaud Joel Onesmo Selejio October 2020 ISSN 2597-1018 Does Scarcity Reduce Cooperation? Experimental Evidence from Rural Tanzania∗ Gustav Agneman1, Paolo Falco1, Exaud Joel2, and Onesmo Selejio2 1Department of Economics, University of Copenhagen 2Department of Economics, University of Dar Es Salaam October 21, 2020 Abstract Cooperation is essential to reap efficiency gains from specialization, not least in poor com- munities where economic transactions often are informal. Yet, cooperation might be more difficult to sustain under scarcity, since defecting from a cooperative equilibrium can yield safe, short-run benefits. In this study, we investigate how scarcity affects cooperation by leveraging exogenous variation in economic conditions induced by the Msimu harvest in ru- ral Tanzania. We document significant changes in food consumption between the pre- and post-harvest period, and show that lean season scarcity reduces socially efficient but per- sonally risky investments in a framed Investment Game. This can contribute to what is commonly referred to as a behavioral poverty trap. Keywords: scarcity, cooperation, field experiment JEL Codes: C71, C93, D91 ∗This study was made possible by financial support from the Danish Embassy in Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), as part of the GDRP Phase II Project. We are grateful to the team of research assistants from the Singida region for their excellent work. We are also thankful to the Development Economics Research Group at the University of Copenhagen for their invaluable support, and to the TRIBE group at the University of Copenhagen for great feedback.
