Rural Transformation Through Savings and Credit Cooperative Societies in Moshi District, Tanzania

Agriculture's importance to industrialization efforts in Tanzania goes far beyond its direct impact on the manufacturing sector, but on farmers' incomes, economic stability, and reduction of poverty. The challenges are on both sides; agricultural development initiatives are needed on one hand while manufacturing obstacles are supposed to be dealt with on the other hand. Using literature review approach, the study found that there should be a balance between infrastructure development and agricultural support so that the two may support well the industrialization process. Massive efforts have been myths to the smooth changes which call for serious attention to the planners to review strategies, policies and programme. On the other hand, the potentials of the agricultural sector are observed to support the industrialization process in Tanzania. The potentials include food security, private investments support, employment, and exports enhancement and supply strain stabilization through various crops and produce.
