Dodoma/Dar es Salaam. Fresh hope has emerged for Tanzanian pigeon pea farmers as the government engages in talks with India to secure a major market for the crop. The price of pigeon peas has sharply declined in recent seasons, primarily due to falling international prices driven by abundant supply.
Sources indicate that global prices have dropped significantly from $1.60 per kilogram last year to between $0.60 and $0.75 currently.
