Tanzania's main coffee producing area, located at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, is rich in volcanic soil. Some coffee trees planted here are more than 100 years old. Coffee was first introduced by Christians from Kenya to grow coffee. Coffee trees must be carefully taken care of, weeded and fertilized. Moreover, old branches must be cut off so that new branches can grow to maintain the quality of coffee beans. Coffee bean processing plants are well equipped; coffee beans are an important economic crop in Tanzania, and the local government attaches great importance to this industry: raw beans are unbaked beans, which contain 11.5% fat; 11.5% moisture; 28.6% crude fiber; 4.0% minerals; 6.2% tannin. Caffeine 1.3%; essence 17.0%; sugar 8.1%; protein 11.8%.

Baked beans: baked beans containing 13.0% fat; 1.5% caffeine; 29.5% crude fiber; 2.6% moisture; 5.0% minerals; 4.2% tannic acid; 29.4% essence; 2.0% sugar; 12.8% protein.

Due to political instability and rampant diseases and insect pests, the coffee industry in Tanzania has been damaged, leading to a decline in the overall level of coffee and instability in quality, which in turn lead to lower prices, which are usually the result of 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 the coffee in Tanzania is excellent.

Market for coffee in Tanzania:

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 being sold directly to the Tanzania Coffee Management Committee.
