to globalisation that is making people, livestock and materials move world over much more than it was in the past. iv) Draw up a code of conduct for producers for guaranteeing, through bylaws, product quality (for instance preventing adulteration of milk, or selling untreated skins) v) Working with MWI, LGA and other stakeholders organize livestock keepers to contribute adequate funds for maintenance of the livestock facilities they are using. v) Working with MWI, LGA and other stakeholders organize livestock keepers to plan livestock facilities projects (cattle dips, charco dams), and to ensure each contributes fully their share of cost of establishing the approved projects. vi) Provide training and support rainwater harvesting for livestock keepers to enable them undertake supplementary irrigation on livestock pastures. This is particularly important in the northern and central zones where dry season drought has been responsible for almost massive death of livestock year in, year out. At the same time provide training on appropriate technology, particularly that is economical and practicable on water use in the specific areas. vii) Free grazing livestock are known to be a destructive lot both on the land environment (leaving land bare in their wake and exposing it to agents of erosion – wind, rain, and so on), and also to the livestock themselves (losing weight due to long travels in search of forage and water), there is urgency for the sub-sector to institute an integrated programme that will enable livestock free grazers to become settled, and even have individual livestock keeper’s area fenced in (using non costly material such as thorny bushes). But then there should be health and water facilities for both livestock and humans within short distances. Also a very important element for effecting settled livestock keeping is having in place effective pasture development and management (rotational grazing, fertilizer application, weeding technology - e.g. use of herbicides); and forage conservation programmes. viii) In collaboration with other stakeholders, provide training on effective planning of subsector DADPs, particularly in those districts where this still unsatisfactorily provided. ix) In collaboration with other stakeholders, complete the indicator targets for the ‘ short listed indicators framework’ for the ASDP. ON PROCESSING x) In collaboration with MITM and other relevant stakeholders, facilitate major investment in local livestock products processing of currently raw exported products, both large and small scale xi) Organize and provide training to small scale livestock products processors in order for them to produce multi-products, quality commodities - shoes, belts, Cashew nuts can be processed to produce several quality products in demand on the market; and so on. 138
Marketing Sub-Sector Lack of reliable, rewarding market is one of the biggest constraints to development of the agricultural sector. Large volumes of fruits and vegetables rot yearly due to lack of market. Produce market centres are few and most undeveloped and space provided may be too small in a number of cases. Organised produce collection centres are few. Farmers in many areas lack bargaining power, as are not organised, and have no bargaining skills. Also market access is in many cases hampered due to poor or non-existence of roads; and where they exist, transport charges are in any case high. Export crops markets are likely shrinking due to the global meltdown; and prices offered are depressed. In addition there are no quality assurance measures in place for several crops almost country-wide. Indeed, one could go on and on, as the problems are many as already discussed in the market section above. Now, priority areas for this sub-sector: i) Mount vigorous search for new markets for Tanzania’s crop commodities (traditional and non traditional; raw and processed), Livestock products (live animals, beef, hides and skins), and livestock tertiary livestock products (leather, shoes, belts, hand bags, and so on. Sector should all possible innovative means – work with Tanzania Trade Centres abroad & embassies abroad; arrange/ participate in trade fairs (where relevant products are presented); contact prospective buyers and soliciting orders; arrange promotional trade tours (as they do for the Tourism Industry) ii) In collaboration with LGA (and respective communities) and other stakeholders develop a nation-wide marketing infrastructural packages system, This will be an extension of what AMSDP is doing; but should be more intensified horizontally and vertically. The system packages could in fact be a mirror image of what was done and how it was done under PEDP (Primary Education Development Programme) or now SEDP (Secondary Education Development Programme). Thus government in partnership with the LGA communities (and other stakeholders, including the private sector) will implement LGA level marketing infrastructural packages that will comprise: - construction of attractive village (or at least ward) level modern produce collection/ marketing centres (with full facilities - fence, receiving concrete floor-provided sheds, concrete floor-provided sheds selling sheds, ample storage, reasonable secure parking for lorries and other vehicles; and should also be provided with utilities (water and even electricity if possible) and paid for, private run, toilets and baths. Even the surroundings could be provided with modern restaurants and good landscape, to make the marketplace area really attractive; and do away with the current ramshackle existing in many so- called markets. To avoid too much congestion only raw and processed agricultural commodities would be sold in the area designated as market area, including any of its developed area. There should be no other construction in the premises of the market area, except the ones indicated - construction of modern District level agricultural produce market place. This would be much larger ( anything from 4 to 10 ha); and this does to be built in the present municipal centres. It should have facilities much as stated for the villa, but they will be much larger. There could also be a large, budget hostel to house customers that would 139
