In 1968, the government initiated a
smallholder tea development program in which all aspects of
smallholder tea marketing and trade were turned over to the
Tanzania Tea Authority which assumed a wide array of
responsibilities. The Authority promoted smallholder tea
production. Most of the smallholder tea leaf went to the
eight Tea Authority-owned factories for processing, and the
rest to factories owned by the estates. Despite its
apparent success, there were numerous signs of distress in
the smallholder sector. This note describes the constraints
and challenges faced by the production of tea in Tanzania. |
