I\u2019m proud to my vibrant team for a job well done. We, however, dedicate the awards to our farmers and more importantly to our development partners who made us great\u201d TAHA Group CEO, Dr. Jacqueline Mkindi said.<\/p>\n<p>TAHA wasn&#8217;t only celebrated, but also featured prominently in the Prime Minister Majaliwa Kassim Majaliwa\u2019s speech in the climax of Nane-Nane agricultural exhibitions at Nyakabindi grounds in Simiyu region.<\/p>\n<p>PM, who visited TAHA\u2019s booth and garden at the show, poured a lot of praises to the institution for its steadfast struggles to compliment the Government\u2019s efforts in developing the horticulture industry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI used to follow up the TAHA\u2019s undertakings for quite sometimes now, and I must say that its work in our country is praiseworthy\u201d Mr Majaliwa said.<\/p>\n<p>He made a passionate call upon Tanzanians to invest heavily in horticulture, terming the industry as a game changer.<\/p>\n<p>The PM also pledged to continue working closely with TAHA in a bid to take the horticulture sub-sector in the new heights.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would like to implore farmers to seek loans through the state-run Tanzania Agricultural Development Bank (TADB) that issues credits hassle-free. There\u2019s a lot of money waiting for you farmers\u201d Mr Majaliwa explained.<\/p>\n<p>TAHA is also commended for its tailor-made intervention, with its latest project in partnership with UN Development Programme (UNDP) where they have pioneered a commercial horticulture in Busega and Bunda being credited for having transformed the lives of the farmers and rural economy at large.<\/p>\n<p>TAHA is an apex private sector member-based organisation that advocates for the growth and competitiveness of the industry in the East African country.<\/p>\n<p>Since its inception in 2004, TAHA has been an effective voicing platform for producers, traders, exporters and processors of horticultural products, mainly \ufb02owers, fruits, vegetables, horticultural seeds and spices.<\/p>\n<p>The association safeguards interests of the industry\u2019s stakeholders and ensures their concerns are well articulated within national and international agendas.<\/p>\n<p>Way back in 2004, when TAHA was established, there were less than 50 commercial horticultural companies in the country with insignificant production volumes for export markets.<\/p>\n<p>Now 16 years later, TAHA had brought together 4.5 million both large-scale, medium and smallholder\u2019s farmers into a single bloc fortified by a common set of business-oriented interests.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the horticultural industry has turned into the growth driver of the entire Tanzania\u2019s agricultural sector, registering an annual growth rate of 11 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>Its contribution to overall agrarian exports value has grown by 38 per cent on average and is poised for leaps and bounds; thanks to TAHA, Government and development partners such as USAID<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AfricaPress-Tanzania: TANZANIA Horticultural Association (TAHA) has bagged three prestigious awards in the just ended Nane-Nane national premier Agricultural exhibitions.
