Women form the backbone of the agricultural sector, contributing significantly to food production, household income, and community development in Tanzania. Sixty-seven percent of working women are employed in agriculture, predominantly engaging in small-scale farming, tending to both crops and livestock. Women ensure food for their families and bolster food availability in the region. They play a crucial role in the entire agricultural value chain – from planting and harvesting to processing and marketing. Moreover, their involvement in agriculture also significantly impacts household income, with women often reinvesting earnings into their families contributing to education, healthcare, and improved living standards, prioritizing the welfare of their families and communities.
