The World Bank (WB) placed Tanzania among three African nations whose agriculture needs transformation to become the continent’s agriculture powerhouse, with economists saying the sector’s local policy needs to reflect global views.
In its recent journal dubbed “Putting Africans at the Heart of Food Security and Climate Resilience” the WB said at least one in five Africans goes to bed hungry, with 140 million individuals facing acute food insecurity.
Moreover, the journal sees that Tanzania, Angola, and Zambia have the potentials to be agricultural powerhouses in Africa, though the sector should be transformed to meet the needs of people, economy, and environment.
