8. MoreMilk in Tanzania (MoreMilkiT) Project
Adapting dairy market hubs for pro-poor smallholder value chains in Tanzania
Potential synergies to enhance ITM delivery

9. MoreMilkiT Objectives
1. Develop scalable value chains business approaches with improved
organization and institutions serving resource-poor male and female
smallholder dairy households
2. Generate and communicate evidence on business and
organizational options for increasing participation of resource-poor
male and female households in dairy value chains
MoreMilkiT – Objectives
Key question: How can policy be informed and
influenced so that dairy sector investments are deployed
to better target the poor and marginalized?
To achieve this, we must:
It’s about extending the frontiers of commercial dairying in Tanzania!

10. Leah Mwilaki’s business represents what we want to multiply
• Leah’s business interlocks input & output transactions between where
farmers come together in small groups to access the desired inputs or
services with their milk delivery as collateral (check-off). Earns about
$700/mo
• She represents a critical linkage in the dairy market hub (DMH) approach
that the MoreMilkiT Project partnership is piloting to grow dairying in
marginalized areas. The hubs could act as platforms to improve quality
assurance
MoreMilkiT

11. Pilot sites
Site selection criteria (conducted in 2012)
High cattle density; High poverty level; High population density; Good access to market; High production
potential; Deficit areas with potential for increasing supply through feed interventions; Potential
partners/stakeholders.
