Abstract
The project focused on milk value chains in Iringa Municipality
and Tanga City with a view to draw specific impacts of urban
dairy farming on income and poverty levels. These towns
represent two distinct milk collection and marketing
arrangements. Milk marketing in Iringa Municipality is
generally through informal' outlets. In contrast, milk from farmers in Tanga is
pooled for sale to processors including (M/s Tanga Fresh Ltd) and Ammy
Dairies. The two cases describe similar market arrangements also found
elsewhere in Tanzania.
