Se analiza la organizacion general del mercadeo agricola de cultivos alimenticios, incluyendo la yuca, en Tanzania; tambien se cubren el papel de los acuerdos institucionales dentro de este proceso y la politica de precios para los cultivos alimenticios. Los resultados indicaron que la demasiada frecuente modificacion de los canales oficiales de mercadeo han ocasionado incertidumbre e inestabilidad entre los productores. No se han realizado las inversiones apropiadas en transporte, almacenamiento y mano de obra capacitada. Los bajos precios del productor tambien han afectado el poder de compra de los consumidores urbanos y tanto los agricultores como los consumidores no estan adecuadamente representados en el sistema de mercadeo. Se sugiere una mayor liberalizacion del mercado para permitir la expansion de un canal de mercadeo privado mas eficiente. (CIAT) spa
The general organization of agricultural marketing of food crops, including cassava, in Tanzania is analyzed also covering the role of institutional agreements within this process and the pricing policy for food crops. Results indicated that the too frequent modification of the official marketing channel has resulted in a sense of uncertainty and instability among producers. Appropriate investments in transport, storage, and skilled manpower have not been made. Low producer prices have also upheld the purchasing power of urban consumers and farmers and consumers are not adequately represented in the marketing system. Further market liberalization to allow the more efficient private marketing channel to expand is suggested. (CIAT) eng
