  • Why should we invest in sunflower oil in Tanzania?
  • Investment in sunflower oil production locally could therefore provide competition against imported oil. One reason for encouraging the greater production and processing of sunflower oil in Tanzania is thus its potential for import substitution, which could generate income and jobs at home and have a beneficial impact on foreign- exchange outflows.
  • Why is sunflower oil a good crop?
  • The oil from sunflower offers more benefits compared to selling sunflower seed. Sunflower is a good crop because farmers also sell the by-product of sunflower cake.” Mrs. Kamuwikeni plans to buy an oil expeller and connect her farm to electricity so that she can start processing oil on her own.
  • Can processing sunflower into oil boost income for small-scale farmers?
  • Bubala Soko is the agricultural extension officer for Kalichero Agriculture Camp. He says that adding value by processing sunflower into oil can boost income for small-scale farmers. Mr. Soko explains: “Sunflower is a crop that can improve income levels of farmers if farmers add value to their produce.
  • How is sunflower oil processed?
  • To process sunflower into cooking oil, farmers use a grinding machine called an expeller. Because Mrs. Kamuwikeni does not have an expeller, she uses other people’s expellers and pays a processing fee. She says, “After extracting the oil using the expeller, the oil is not clean enough to be sold directly to the community.”
