  • What percentage of Tanzania’s soybeans are grown by small-scale farmers?
  • Traditional small-scale farmers grow more than 99 percent of Tanzanias soybean crop; producers generally use few inputs and produce low unit yields.
  • Is Soya a good food for Tanzania?

  • Why are soya yields so low in Tanzania?
  • Yields are also curtailed (both on small and large-scale farms) by the limited availability of quality seeds and the absence of adapted varieties (only two varieties are officially certified for use in Tanzania). The Southern Highlands are the foci of most soya cultivation.
