  • Are sunflowers a viable crop in the Tabora Region?
  • Sunflowers and groundnuts have low soil nutrient requirements, making the crop a viable option for less fertile areas of the Tabora Region and, compared to the popular tobacco cash crop, the production cycle of sunflowers is less labor intensive which could be an incentive to farmers.
  • Is sunflower oil high in saturated fat & polyunsaturated fat?
  • Sunflower oil is low in saturated fat and high in polyunsaturated fat. Oil seed production in Tanzania mainly focuses on ground nuts (40%), sunflower (36%), sesame (15%), cotton (8%) and palm oil (1%). More than half of vegetable oil consumed in Tabora and Tanzania as a whole is imported due to insufficient domestic production.
  • 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.
  • What is the market for sunflower & groundnuts in Tabora?
  • The current market for the sunflower and groundnuts products is local consumption. More than half of vegetable oil consumed in Tabora is imported due to the lack of supply in local production. According to the 2002 Census report, the Tabora Region had a population of 1,710,465.
