Actividades realizadas o en vías de realización The Southern Agricultural Growth Corridor of Tanzania (SAGCOT)
is an agricultural partnership designed to improve agricultural
productivity, food security and livelihoods in Tanzania. Initiated at
the World Economic Forum Africa Summit in May 2010, it then
launched its SAGCOT Investment Blueprint, nationally by Prime
Minister Pinda, in Dar el Salaam, and internationally by H.E. President
Kikwete at the 2011 World Economic Forum in Davos. The Investment
Blueprint showcases investment opportunities in the
corridor and lays-out a framework of institutions and activities
required to reap development potential.
Resultados y repercusiones SAGCOT has the potential
to make a serious and significant impact by bringing together
government, business, donor partners and the farming community
to pool resources and work together towards a common goal.
It is a comprehensive and inclusive initiative. By addressing the
entire agricultural supply chain, the SAGCOT approach goes beyond
raising agricultural productivity and ensures the necessary
infrastructure, policy environment and access to knowledge to
create an efficient, well-functioning agricultural supply chain.
SAGCOT covers approximately one-third of mainland Tanzania,
extending North and South of the central rail, road and power
“backbone” that runs from Dar es Salaam to the Northern areas
of Zambia and Malawi.
