FAQ
- QWhy is the demand for sunflower oil increasing in Tanzania?AWidespread adoption of improved seed is one important driver of increased production of sunflower oil in Tanzania, already one of the largest producers of the crop in Africa. And with sunflower processors investing in more than 50,000 metric tons of processing capacity, demand for sunflower from farmers is increasing. Setting up for change at scale
- QHow much does sunflower oil cost in Tanzania?ASunflower oil comprises 83% of total edible oils produced in Tanzania but meets only 30% of demand. Sunflower farmer in Tanzania While consumers prefer refined sunflower oil over imported palm oil, they find the cost differential prohibitive (USD 2.2/L vs. USD 1.5/L, respectively).
- QWhat oils can be processed?AAll kinds of seed crude oil. For example common oils: soybean, peanut, sunflower, rapeseed, palm fruit, coconut, rice bran, corn germ, cottonseed, etc.
- QWhich country produces sunflower oil?ATanzania is one country among others in the world producing sunflower oilseeds for raw materials in processing cholesterol-free edible cooking oil with a by-product used as livestock feeds. Currently sunflower oil makes about 13% of the world edible oil production.
- QWhy is Tanzania transforming the sunflower industry?AThese tax and tariff changes have put Tanzania on the path to transforming the entire sector by prompting investors to pursue hybrid seed production, processing and other investments in the sunflower space. Dalberg was able to draw on its coalition of funders to obtain the private investment needed for essential technologies.
- QCould Tanzania's sunflower sector be a model for other value chains?AAs the study reveals, today Tanzania’s sunflower sector is poised to be a model for other value chains in Tanzania and inspire other countries to pursue industrialization by replicating its success in other value chains.
- QWhat is the demand for vegetable oil in Tanzania?ADemand for vegetable oil is at least growing with the rate of population growth. The production of oilseeds in Tanzania mainly focuses on ground nuts (40%), sunflower (36%), sesame (15%), cotton (8%), and palm oil (1%).
