  • Does Tanzania have a potential in the sunflower oil sector?
  • Tanzania has great potential in the sunflower oil seeds sector, which can be scaled-up as one of its key sectors for industrial development.
  • Why is Tanzania transforming the sunflower industry?
  • These tax and tariff changes have put Tanzania on the path to transforming the entire sector by prompting investors to pursue hybrid seed production, processing and other investments in the sunflower space. Dalberg was able to draw on its coalition of funders to obtain the private investment needed for essential technologies.
  • Can the sunflower sector become an exporter to other countries?
  • Industrialization of the sunflower sector is just a start, and a number of challenges remain before it can fulfill its potential ¨C possibly as an exporter to other countries in the region. For now, from a seed to oil, and policy to people¡¯s lives, the model established in Tanzania¡¯s sunflower sector offers the promise to scale.
  • Which country produces sunflower oil?
  • Tanzania is one country among others in the world producing sunflower oilseeds for raw materials in processing cholesterol-free edible cooking oil with a by-product used as livestock feeds. Currently sunflower oil makes about 13% of the world edible oil production.
  • Could Tanzania's sunflower sector be a model for other value chains?
  • As the study reveals, today Tanzania¡¯s sunflower sector is poised to be a model for other value chains in Tanzania and inspire other countries to pursue industrialization by replicating its success in other value chains.
  • How much sunflower oil is produced a year?
  • While the production of sunflower oil seeds varying between 75,000 to 100,000 tons from year 2001 to 2005, it increased in the last two seasons dramatically to more than 350,000 tons since 2006 (Figure 1).
