Agriculture remains central to Tanzania’s industrialization drive as articulated in the Government’s Five Year Development Plan and the recently adopted Agricultural Sector Development Plan Phase Two- ASDP II and the Zanzibar Agricultural Sector Development Programme (ZASDP). An increase in agricultural productivity will form the basis of the country’s industrialization push and employment creation. AGRI-CONNECT is fully aligned with the Government’s priorities as outlined in ASDP II and the ZASDP.
AGRI-CONNECT will contribute to overcoming key constraints in the Agriculture sector that limit production, value addition, marketing and access to regional and export markets for horticulture, coffee and tea farmers.
Manfredo Fanti
Head of European Delegation
We are particularly grateful for the EU financial support, which has come at the right time when the ASDP II has recently been launched and the Government continues to create an enabling environment for industrialization to foster economic growth.
Mr. Doto James
Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Finance and Planning
They stand to greatly benefit particularly from developments in the horticulture, coffee and tea sectors, with the potential to attract industry which will boost employment, reduce imports and generate foreign investments in Tanzania.
