Tanzania: Coffee Annual
FAS Dar es Salaam forecasts that Tanzania’s coffee production will increase to 1.15 million bags in the marketing year (MY) 2017/2018, from 1.05 million bags in MY 2016/2017, primarily due to the biennial bearing cycle. Ending stocks are expected to decrease by 32,000 bags compared to MY 2016/17. The Government of Tanzania (GOT) continues to implement its coffee sector strategic plan whose key objective is to double production by 2021.
