AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Agritech Tech: Tanzania’s first indigenous agricultural drone maker, Mati Technologies, showcased crop-spraying drones at NaneNane, promising faster, more precise pesticide application to boost productivity under Vision 2050. Digital Finance: UN Capital Development Fund’s PesaTech programme says it mobilised over $18m for Tanzanian fintech firms (2022–2025), supporting 22 post-revenue companies and reaching 2.3m active users through digital lending, payments and healthtech. Science Policy: Tanzania plans to overhaul its Science and Technology Policy, with a possible shift to a broader Science, Technology and Innovation Policy to strengthen the full innovation ecosystem. Healthcare Reform: Hospital stakeholders urged patient-centred reforms, warning that tech upgrades alone won’t fix drug fees, billing and service delays; the push follows government action at Muhimbili National Hospital. Public Health & Youth: Doctors warn young people against mixing energy drinks with alcohol after rising admissions for non-communicable diseases like hypertension and kidney disorders. Green Construction: Cassava peels are being trained into a cement alternative through a UNDP-supported sustainable construction programme in Kisarawe. Agribusiness Markets: Tanzania’s Warehouse Receipt System generated over Sh2.3trn for farmers and traders in 2025/26 and plans to expand to livestock and other products. Regional Health Cooperation: Tanzania will host the second International Primary Health Care Conference in Arusha (Sept 9–11, 2026), aiming to strengthen primary care systems toward universal health coverage.
