Introduction to the Flavor description Price of Tanzania's Fine Coffee beans

The national average annual output of wheat is 70, 000 tons, and the largest wheat production unit is the HANNANG wheat complex, which is composed of several farms with a total planting area of 4000 hectares. These farms are located in the Hannang district of Arusha and are all autonomous subsidiaries of NAFCO. In the 1970s, NAFCO developed and operated these farms with the help of the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), and CIDA's assistance to NAFCO ended in 1993. In addition to these farms in NAFCO, a number of large private farms in Arusha, Iringa and Kilimanjaro provinces also produce rice. In addition, some small farmers also produce wheat as rations.

Sugarcane is mainly grown by four large plantation companies, namely Kilombero Sugarcane Company, Mtibwa Sugarcane Plantation, Tanganyika planting Company and Kagera Sugarcane Co., Ltd. In addition, there are some foreign investors growing sugar cane in Kilombero and Mtibwa. The annual output of sugar in China is about 115000 tons, while the annual demand is 300000 tons, and more than 200,000 tons need to be imported every year.

Coffee exports from Tanzania (Tanzania) play an important role in the whole national economy.

In the past, the coffee industry in Tanzania has been dominated by manor cultivation, but now more than 85% are grown by small farmers. Many small farmers form cooperative organizations, the most important of which is the Kilimanjaro Cooperative Alliance (KilimanjaroCooperativeUnion, referred to as KNCU). Tanzanian coffee is sold by the Tanzanian Coffee Management Council (TanzanianCoffeeMarketingBoard, TCMB) to private exporters by auction. In the 1980s, most coffee sales in Tanzania shifted from auctions to coffee-shaped berries sold directly to the Tanzania Coffee Management Committee. Generally speaking, coffee beans in Tanzania have extraordinary quality. For example, the high-quality Tanzanian AA coffee (ChaggaAA), produced in the Moshi area near Mount Kilimanjaro, is famous for its full-grained and fragrant quality. Due to political instability and rampant diseases and insect pests, the Tanzanian coffee industry has been damaged, resulting in a decline in the overall level of coffee and instability in quality, which in turn lead to lower prices. The result of lower prices is usually a further decline in the coffee industry. More notably, it is estimated that more than 12 per cent of Arabica coffee grown in northern Tanzania from 1969-1985 was smuggled into Kenya. Recently, however, the country's coffee industry has shown signs of improving. Although the process of improvement is slow, it is still encouraging because the quality of coffee in Tanzania is excellent. Coffee is one of the main cash crops in Tanzania. Tanzania ranks fourth in export crops after cotton, tobacco and cashew nuts, mainly sold to Italy, Japan and the United States, and coffee exports play an important role in the Tanzanian national economy. Tanzania's main coffee-producing area, located at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, is rich in volcanic soil. Some coffee trees are more than 100 years old. Coffee was first introduced and planted by Christians from Kenya. Coffee trees must be carefully cared for, weeded, fertilized, and old branches must be cut off so that new branches can grow to maintain the quality of coffee beans. The processing plant is located in a nearby town at the foot of the mountain, making it easy to handle coffee beans nearby. Many of the farm owners' families have lived here after generations of immigrants. The farm owners are Indians, Scandinavians, British and, of course, locals, but most of them are small farms. However, the managers of farms and processing farms are mostly local people.
