  • Will Tanzania become more self-reliant in cooking oil production?
  • Thanks to innovative shifts in country-level policy and a new framework for industrialization, Tanzania may soon become more self-reliant in the production of cooking oil and serve as a model for industrialization for other African countries in the process.
  • How can the got reduce Tanzania’s dependence on imported edible oil?
  • The GoT wants to reduce Tanzania’s dependence on imported edible oil by boosting domestic oil seed production and downstream oil processing capacity. In 2016 the GoT implemented a 10% tariff on imports of CPO as one mechanism to support this objective, but stakeholder views on the merits of the tariff policy are mixed.
  • What is the demand gap for edible oil in Tanzania?
  • Much of the demand gap is currently met by imported edible oil (60% across all edible oils, 55-70% for sunflower oil) (Salisali, 2017). The GoT wants to reduce Tanzania’s dependence on imported edible oil by boosting domestic oil seed production and downstream oil processing capacity.
  • Are edible oils a key to the success of Tanzania’s agriculture sector?
  • November 2017 2 Context: The study is informed by the Government of Tanzania’s commitment to industrialize the economy, as framed in the latest Five-Year Development Plan, and the identification of the edible oils value chain as key to the success of the agriculture sector Three edible oils studies are being conducted in parallel.
