Provided that the increase in production and export of bee products is essential for
boosting up the Tanzania economy and the government of Tanzania has put on its
agenda the need to develop beekeeping as one of the strategy to reduce poverty, still
the growth of the export market on bee products is slow and declining.
This study therefore aimed at assessing the opportunities and challenges of honey
exportation and other bee products in Tanzania and evaluated the current performance
of the bee product export market for enhancing future trade.
Honey and other bee products exporters in Dar es Salaam were studied and data were
collected from eighty (80) respondents included exporters of bee products, retailers,
TFS staff and academicians. Data were analyzed using both descriptive and multiple
regressions.
The findings of this study indicated that due to the presence of good forest coverage,
extension services and a variety of different species of vegetations which support
production of bee products the export market in Tanzania is possible and can grow
and gain competitive position in the international markets. However, the study
revealed that market instability and expensiveness of tax are the main hindrances of
the export of honey and other bee products in Tanzania.
Therefore, study recommends that, training and development should be provided to
exporters as well as the beekeepers. Every potential district for beekeeping should
have collection centres for the bee products, tax reduction and stabilization of market
though special agents will encourage traders and other beekeepers. By so doing the
export of honey and other bee products will expand and grow in great extent. |
