AfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> THE National Bank of Commerce (NBC) has appealed to agriculture stakeholders to take advantage of the new \u2018NBC Shambani\u2019 to enhance value chain and its contribution to the economy.<\/p>\n

This was said here by the NBC Bank Arusha Branch Manager, Mirage Msuya, who added that more investment in agriculture could bring agriculture modernisation in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe service is being provided to all people involved in agri business, namely farmers, transporters and distributors of farm inputs,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He said agricultural development has always been among the bank\u2019s top priority and is at the forefront of promoting this important sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the bank, we offer more support to the agricultural industry by giving farmers access to equipment for agricultural mechanisation through our new NBC Shambani product,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Through the NBC Shambani, the bank has been providing financial literacy to farmers as well as opening bank accounts as an important platform to promote a saving culture.<\/p>\n

On his part, the NBC Meru Branch Manager, Florence Ng\u2019wavi said they have been using farmers associations and networks to reach farmers in rural areas engaged in farming and fishing activities.<\/p>\n

Mr Ng\u2019wavi added that high financial illiteracy among farmers is one of the challenges the bank has been encountering when they reach them in the villages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
