harvesting," he observed.<br /><br />Cotton stands among the strategic economic cash crop in Tanzania, currently attracting a total of 500,000 who are cultivating at least 1,000,000 acres in different regions across the country, including Geita, Tabora, Katavi, Shinyanga and Mwanza, among others.<br /><br />Despite being endowed with the friendly agriecological zones to support cotton farming and fiber production, cotton production and productivity in Tanzania has for years been crippled with numerous setbacks in recent years, such as poor agronomic practices, pests and diseases, low quality seeds and lack of access to markets.<br /></span>

sugarcane farming modern implements and other key inputs have already arrived in Dar es Salaam's sea port from India.<br /><br />These, according to him include the special 200m/- worth agricultural machine ( for planting sugarcane) and the green harvest fertilizer (organic fertilizer).<br /><br />"We have so far entered into contract farming with a total of 26 local farmers who will be obliged to cultivate a total of 483 hectares of sugarcane in order to produce at least 25,000 tons of sugarcane to enable the plant to produce a total of 2,500 tons of sugar in it first year of production,"

experts, including houses and a major dining hall, as well as a godown.<br /><br />“And from April to September 2024, we are expecting to import into the country the 5bn/- worth major machines for the processing of sugar in readiness to start production,” he unveiled.<br /><br />Dubbed ‘Sukari Halisi (Dabalo Sugar), the investor expressed that the facility which will start by producing a total of 2,500tons of sugar in its first production leg, in 2025 will later on heighten the production to between 4,000 and 5,000 tons.<br /><br />“The factory’s main market vision priority will first be based

factory with Dodoma City, the poor situation he expressed to have thwarted smooth relocation of the factory’s machines from Dar es Salaam to the project’s venue.<br /><br />“For example, most of the machines, and other facilities are still in Dar es Salaam as we have no means to transfer them to the factory’s site due road infrastructure complications,” he infomed, urging the government to help

Because the Chameleon Sensor measures tension, it does not need to be calibrated to different soil types," Mlowe detailed. <br /><br />And in measuring the extent of water (moisture) in soil, he said the friendly technology is using special card which detects the amount of water through three different colours, red and green and blue.<br /><br />"During soil measuring, when blue color appears means the soil is wet (0 to 20 kPa), if green colour the soil is moist (20 to 50 kPa) and if the card turn to red color means the soil is dry (greater than 50 kPa)," he explained. <br /><br />With the technology, he said farmers stands professional side to know when exactly to irrigate the farm, and not necessary daily.<br /><br />"This technology guide the farmers on when exactly to irrigate the vegetable farm, sometimes it maybe one or two times per week and not necessarily daily as most of the farmers are striving to do," Mlowe insisted.</span><br />
