Dar es Salaam. Tanzania has moved to tighten oversight of the fast-growing avocado industry, with the government preparing new measures aimed at improving produce quality, strengthening the value chain, and addressing long-standing disputes between farmers and buyers.
The measures, announced in Parliament in Dodoma yesterday by the Deputy Minister for Agriculture, Mr David Silinde, are expected to improve market transparency and introduce stricter controls on how avocados are bought and graded, following concerns over frequent disagreements between farmers and traders.
