Kilimo Tanzania Foundation
Kilimo Tanzania Foundation empowers individual and small-scale farmers in Tanzania, enabling them to influence development policies and promote ecological agriculture..
Kilimo Tanzania Foundation (KTF) focuses on empowering smallholder farmers – including women, youth, and farming groups, representing approximately 80% of Tanzania’s agricultural sector – to increase productivity, incomes, and food security. We achieve this through the introduction and implementation of appropriate technologies, innovation and best practices.
To empower individual and small-scale farmers in Tanzania, enabling them to influence development policies and promote ecological agriculture (Agroecology) through capacity building, farmer-led research, advocacy, and networking.
OUR MISSION
To nurture sustainable and viable agriculture practices of individuals and groups of small-scale farmers and the general public and ensure Tanzanians benefit from thriving agribusiness.
OUR VISION
Our Approach
KTF’s work is grounded in the understanding that agriculture is crucial to Tanzania’s economic growth and poverty reduction. While the sector contributes significantly to the national GDP and exports, challenges remain, including access to quality inputs (seeds, fertilizers), outdated farming techniques, and inadequate infrastructure (irrigation, transportation, market access)
