CoffeeNetwork (New York) – The Coffee Board of Tanzania has announced a revised National Coffee Development Strategy, one that is more relevant to the prevailing conditions and better addresses the current transformation agenda as envisaged under Agricultural Sector Development Programme Phase II (ASDP II). Moreover, the revised Strategy would take into consideration of the changing requirements of beneficiaries, the needs of the country, the challenges of the coffee value chain, government policies and global priorities.
The overall objective of the new Strategy is to fast-track the performance of the coffee sector so that its contribution to the income of farmers and other actors along the value chain and the economy at large is felt more significantly.
One of the main goals is to increase coffee production throughout the country, with a goal of reaching 300,000 MT by 2025/26. It is estimated that, Tanzania has 235,000 ha suitable for coffee production producing an average of 68,147 MT of clean coffee equivalent to 270 gm/tree of Arabica and 400 kg/tree of Robusta clean coffee. This implies that the potentially utilized area is estimated to be 122,260 ha of which 82,723 ha are under Arabica and 39,537 ha are under Robusta coffee. Further, about 112,740 ha potential for coffee production are still underutilized. This strategy therefore aims at increasing productivity from 270 gm/tree for Arabica to 540 gm/tree and double productivity of Robusta to 800 gm/tree of clean coffee which all together will increase production to 137,068 MT by 2025/26.
The main export destinations of Tanzanian coffee are Japan, Italy, Germany, the USA, Belgium, and Finland.
In addition to the sale of unprocessed green beans, soluble coffee manufactured in Bukoba is another product exported to the world market. Most of the Tanzania’s coffee export is used for blending with other coffees, resulting in a loss of the Tanzanian name on the international market. The Tanzania Coffee Board (TCB) has made efforts over the years to make and promote a better brand name for Tanzanian coffee. In Japan, Tanzanian coffee has maintained a brand called "Kilimanjaro Coffee", and initially referred to coffee grown in that region only.
In 1991, however, the All Japan Fair Trade Council decided that all Tanzanian coffee can retain the label "Kilimanjaro Coffee" regardless of the region in which it was grown. Furthermore, any coffee blend that contains at least 30% Tanzanian beans is also granted use of this label. This was a major step for an appreciation and consideration in value for Tanzanian coffee in the Japanese market and today Japan is the biggest importer of coffee from Tanzanian.

Daily coffee report


August 11 – It was generally a quiet night for the markets until early this morning when a headline hit that Iran and Oman were close to reaching a deal. Stock futures rallied, while the dollar index followed Treasury yields lower, along with active selling in the energy- and food-based commodities. The headline had limited impact though in a world that has become skeptical of promises of peace. Stock futures remain steady to firmer at this hour, while the VIX trades near 16 – just above 2026 lows. The dollar index is trading near 99.8 this morning, after recovering from its early morning selloff over the following hour of trade. Yields on 10-year Treasuries are trading near 4.69%, while yields on 2-year Treasuries trade near 4.22%. WTI crude oil is trading near $82 per barrel at this hour, while Brent trades near $88. The grain and oilseed markets are mostly weaker, after failing to recover from this morning’s early selloff that started in the crude oil market.
