Expanding Rice Production Project (ERPP)

The Expanding Rice Production Project (ERPP) aims to increase rice produced and marketed in targeted areas of Morogoro (mainland) and Zanzibar, leading to improved rural incomes and food security. This will be achieved through activities related to sustainable seed systems, improved crop productivity through better irrigation and crop management, and innovative marketing strategies. The project includes efforts to manage the irrigation scheme as a block, facilitate bulk purchase of inputs, and coordinate crop sales through a warehousing program. The project contributes to climate change adaptation by supporting improved irrigation and water management systems.
