Current global economic meltdown might be a blessing in disguise for Tanzania should long term strategies be employed to revamp its agricultural sector, Standard Chartered Bank` s Regional Head of Research, Africa Razia Khan has said.
Addressing a press conference in Dar es Salaam this week, Khan said the country stands to benefit immensely from adequate investment in agriculture, its traditional economic mainstay, owing to expected increase in demand for food and food products in countries currently grappling with the economic recession.
