Using a combination of qualitative and quantitative techniques, this chapter examines processes
and impacts of International Land Deals in Kisarawe District. Three focus group discussions
encompassing 30 participants and 17 key informants were involved. A survey of 180 small-scale
farmers who were heads of households or spouses also participated in the study. Qualitative data
were analyzed used content analysis techniques whereby quantitative data were summarized
using Statistical Package for Social Science. Results showed that the process of land leasing to
the British Sun-Biofuel Tanzania Limited were top down. Secondly, the employment opportunity
created by the investor though improved household income was not sustainable and so smallscale farmers bounced back into poverty. Thirdly, despite a Memorandum of Understanding
signed between the investor and Kisarawe District, there were no mechanisms to ensure effective
implementation of the deal as a result the win-win situation was not attained and that the deal
exacerbated rural poverty among small-scale famers. |
