rates particularly for out growers
 Absence of government subsidy on inputs to cane
farmers
 Poor infrastructure/access roads to Outgrower
fields
Challenges….. Cont…
 High cost of production

Challenges …..Cont…
Response to Challenges
 A five year Industry Development Plan to 2015/16
was evolved aiming at self sufficiency and moderate
surplus by plan end.
 Existing factories were to expand capacities
 New projects were to come on board
Response to Challenges ….cont…
 The National Development Plan to 2015 placed a
huge challenge on the industry.
 Aims at self sufficiency and realisation of
100,000mt surplus sugar by plans end.
 Availability of suitable and unencumbered
land has been identified as huge bottleneck
to the relialisation of the plan. Need to
debottleneck.
Response to Challenges ….cont…
 The government has set up a Task Force to
address the issue and recommend course of
action.
 Sugar is now a top agenda within the
Government


Projects included in BRN portfolio
Compensation to free Ruipa land being processed
Land within Rufiji Basin on process to be free for
investment into sugar
Response to Challenges ….cont…
 Creating enabling environment for industry
growth very crucial.
 Need to protect the infant industry against
market distortions.
 Control of illegal imports/smuggling.
 Building of trust amongst stakeholder groups
particularly millers-growers.
Response to Challenges ….cont…
 Institutional capacity building to deliver on
regulation


existing circumstances
Conclusion
•

•
•
There exists huge potential for the development of the
Sugar industry in Tanzania
Players should always move in unity to have common
interests realised and safeguarded
The industry should conduct itself in unquestionable
way and seek to reach a stage where it can be trusted by
its stakeholders particularly the government
The industry has huge potential to create wealth to its
stakeholders and contribute immensely to the country
economy as well as welfare of the common man in the
street.
