Produktbeschreibung

This work presents findings from the first agricultural policy review conducted by the Monitoring African Food and Agricultural Policies (MAFAP) project in the United Republic of Tanzania. It reviews key economic issues and the main policy decisions affecting the agricultural sector. In particular, it focuses on price incentives and disincentives faced by farmers and consumers of nine agricultural commodities which make up a significant part of agricultural production, imports, exports, and diet. The work also presents a detailed analysis of the composition and level of public expenditure to support the agricultural sector. The periods analyzed were 2005 to 2010 for commodities and 2006 to 2011 for public expenditure. Finally, it reviews the impact of the maize export ban on farmers and consumers. The study offers results based on using MAFAP¿s rigorous methodology for measuring the effects of agricultural and food policies, as well as public spending, on agriculture and rural development. Its findings and recommendations are expected to support the dialogue on agricultural and food policies in the United Republic of Tanzania.
