| Summary: | Consumption of fruits and vegetables is below the recommended standard in Tanzania. Among the reasons for this are the lack of availability and affordability due to high rates of food loss and waste and food safety issues in domestic value chains. These domestic chains are often informal, meaning they operate outside regulatory and legal frameworks and are therefore excluded from formal services and investments. Moreover, ‘midstream actors’ operating in these chains are not recognised as key drivers of food systems and therefore not included in their governance. |
