Tanzania imports over 60% of its edible oil, including sunflower oil, mainly from Malaysia and Indonesia (Ministry of Agriculture, 2023). Yet, our country has the land, climate, and capacity to produce more locally.
Currently, sunflower yields in Tanzania average 0.6–1.2 tons per hectare, while countries like Ukraine achieve over 2.5 tons per hectare using improved practices (FAO, 2022). This yield gap presents a major investment opportunity.
