Do women lead as well as find employment in wholesale food markets in Nigeria
We use a unique dataset from a census of 299 wholesale markets in 8 Nigerian states spread over the poorer and more culturally conservative North and the relatively more affluent and developed South. This dataset includes 471 product-level governance structures such as tomato and fish trader associations and overall market management committees. We find few women are in top leadership positions in the markets, particularly in the North, despite w…
Productivity and profitability of small-scale aquaculture in Malawi
Small-scale aquaculture in Malawi contributes to nutrition and food security, and serves as a rural income diversification strategy. Nevertheless, its adoption is low. Drawing on a recent survey of 732 small-scale fish farms across the country, this study assesses the production, yield, profit, and profit per square metre of small-scale fish farms and explores their determinants using regression analysis. Most fish farms are owned and managed by …
Assessment of the policy enabling environment for large-scale food fortification
Large-scale food fortification (LSFF) programs have potential to improve a population’s nutritional status. Though their success depends heavily on the prevailing policy environment, few tools exist to understand this environment. To address this gap, we develop a novel framework to define and assess the policy enabling environment for LSFF. This easy-to-apply framework can be used in any setting to track progress and identify next steps for cont…
Spillover effects of medium- and large-scale farms on smallholder farmers in Tanzania
School Meal Programs in Africa
Introduction: School meal programs operate throughout Africa, serving as a social safety net and aiming to improve children's nutrition, influence their dietary choices, and strengthen the agrifood economy through local procurement. Despite their rapid expansion in the past decade, there has been no systematic effort to comprehensively document school feeding activities across the continent. Methods: Detailed information on school feeding activit…
Factor Market Activity and the Inverse Farm Size-Productivity Relationship in Tanzania
Although the inverse farm size-productivity relationship (IR) is sometimes used to motivate arguments in favour of smallholder-led agricultural development, it remains unclear what drives this relationship. It may be attributed to market imperfections that compel small farms to use land more intensively than large farms. Using a three-wave longitudinal household survey from Tanzania, we examine whether the intensity of the IR is related to local …
The changing face of agriculture in Tanzania
Characteristics and Spillover Effects of Medium-Scale Farms in Tanzania
Definitions of “rural” and “urban” and understandings of economic transformation
Designing effective policies for economic development often entails categorizing populations by their rural or urban status. Yet there exists no universal definition of what constitutes an "urban" area, and countries alternately apply criteria related to settlement size, population density, or economic advancement. In this study, we explore the implications of applying different urban definitions, focusing on Tanzania for illustrative purposes. T…
Exploring Impacts of Community-Based Legal Aid on Intrahousehold Gender Relations in Tanzania
Community-based legal aid (CBLA) has been promoted as a promising intervention to reach rural marginalized populations who face barriers to accessing formal legal services and is increasingly implemented with the specific goal of protecting women's rights. This study evaluates the impact of a twelve-month CBLA program in northwestern Tanzania on intrahousehold gender relations using a clustered-randomized control trial across 139 villages. Among …
All in the Family
While most research on bequest motives has focused on developed countries, less is known about the developing country context. This paper explores the drivers of bequest decisions in Kagera, Tanzania, with particular attention paid to the gender of parents and children. We draw primarily from predictions of the strategic bequest (exchange) model to evaluate whether parents divide their estate with the intent to solicit care from their children. A…
Land Markets and Land Access Among Female-Headed Households in Northwestern Tanzania
Land markets and the distribution of land in northwestern Tanzania
Africa's changing farm size distribution patterns
This study assesses changes over the past decade in the farm size distributions of Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania, and Zambia, drawing on two or more waves of nationally representative population‐based and/or area‐based surveys. Analysis indicates that much of Sub‐Saharan Africa is experiencing major changes in farm land ownership patterns. Among all farms below 100 hectares in size, the share of land on small‐scale holdings under five hectares has decli…
