(CIAT)Summary: The following aspects of bean production in Tanzania are discussed: its importance, types of beans, their introduction (var. for canning purposes and for exportation) and distribution, soil and climatic conditions, cropping systems, production, trade, storage, and utilization. Factors limiting production, which is predominantly rainfed, are described in detail: use of genetic mixtures, pests and diseases as well as socioeconomic and institutional constraints. The National Milling Corporation (NMC) is in charge of channeling excess production and regulating marketing. Tanzania has a well organized seed production and distribution system. Advances in research and the release of var. Tengeru No. 8 and 16, T3 and Kabanima (the last 2 for local use) since the bean improvement program was started in Tanzania are highlighted. (CIAT)
