%X The Agroforestry Research and Development project in Tanzania was initiated in 1986 and is part of the Southern Africa development community (SADC) regional programme which is funded by CIDA< Canada. This project covers five countries-Malawi, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Mozambique and is being implemented by World Agroforestry Centre in collaboration with government and non-governmental institutions. The project in Tanzania collaborates with the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism.The goals of the project are to promote food security, environmental resilience and to improve income particulary of small scale, resource poor farmers through use of agroforestry technologies and innovations. In Tanzania, the project was initiated to address massive environmental degradation due to deforestation. This has led to declining soil fertility resulting in poor productivity, fuel wood shortages, lack of dry season fodder for domestic animals and loss of natural woodlands. The project operates in Tabora and Shinyanga regions in Tanzania.
