Abstract

This policy brief was written as a contribution to the revision of Tanzania’s National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (NSGRP). It is clear from recent field research that problems with marketing and production of agricultural crops are both holding back economic growth and reducing the impact of growth on poverty. The Briefing makes highlights key issues and makes a number of recommendations.
