Focal crops and FVC defined for testing • Maize, sesame in Ilakala & Changarawe • Millet, sunflower in Ilolo & Idifu • other intercropped commodities - Maize (intercropped with pigeon pea), - Sesame (stand alone) - Millet, sunflower (both intercropped with groundnuts ) • other crops are also part of “processing, markets, consumption” 30/09/2015 8
Trans-SEC upgrading strategies Natural Resource Management/ Crop Production 1 Rainwater harvesting (RWH); fertiliser micro-dosing; optimised weeding:. Post-harvest processing & biomass/energy supply 2 Byproducts for bioenergy: low-cost pyroliser producing charcoal and used for cooking 3 Improved processing devices: mobile maize shelling machines and millet shelling 30/09/2015 Footer 9b machines
3 Improved processing Trans-SEC upgrading strategies devices: mobile maize shelling machines and millet shelling machines 4 Improved wood supply: tree planting in various niches 5 Improved stoves: small scale loam stoves reducing energy consumption 30/09/2015 Footer 10b
Trans-SEC upgrading strategies Markets and income generation 6 New product development: horizontal and vertical coordination of sunflower oil production, sunflower oil press 7 Optimised market oriented grain storage: using low cost IRRI airtight superbags 8 Poultry-crop integration: poultry keeping hutch, disease management, utilization of crop by-products in raising poultry, utilization of poultry 30/09/2015 Footer 11b manure
8 Poultry-crop integration: poultry keeping hutch, disease management, utilization of crop by-products in raising poultry, utilization of poultry manure 9 Market information access system (m-IMAS): mobile phone based online market for farmers marketing their produce at better prices and for buyers. Consumption 10 Household nutrition education: increase awareness of nutrient-rich including indigenous foods, Kitchen garden training: cultivating indigenous fruits and vegetables at the homestead for dietary diversification 30/09/2015 Footer 12b

Recent achievements • Implementation of all UPS ongoing • Participatory business plans for UPS requiring higher investments (SUA) Innovation funds for 4 UPS (MVIWATA, ACT, TFC) • ScalA-FS ex-ante impact assessment completed 17
Recent achievements • 2 nd UPS groups monitoring mission by MVIWATA + ARI July/August • Detailed monitoring of UPS testing (PhD, MSc) continues, but still to be specified • 2 nd Impact assessment mission 22nd August – 9 th Sept 18
ACT – TFC - MVIWATA • Roles and activities better defined • All NGOs & ARI revisit stakeholder mapping • TFC/ACT : Regional and national WS (by mid- October), • MVIWATA/ARI: District level WS (by mid- October) Aim: Informing on FVC UPS, “why are we here, what do we learn,” find collaboration strategies such a business, roles and benefits of actors, challenges we are meeting, visions of future developments, linking
ACT • national policy hub on FVC • What is the use of this extra hub: Owning the process! • Concept : bring together national and grassroot stakeholders (ministries, enterprises, PPP , NGOs, …); feedback by Trans-SEC partners to be integrated by the AGM • launching is expected together with the national stakeholder • meeting • Can it be mainstreamed or institutionalised so that it will become sustainable? Tanzanian-German-R&D&I network
Impact assessment framework Upscaling • Local CSS stakeholders & other villages (farmer visits and FGDs) • District and regional experts (regional workshops and FGDs) • National experts (national workshop) • Scenarios & modelling (PIK, IFPRI, ZALF) across scales 30/09/2015
