Chapter 3 analyzes the impact of the evolving output price incentives for agricultural production since 1986. Chapter 4 analyzes the costs and returns to crop production. Chapter 5 focuses in greater detail on the controversy of what has actually been the performance of Tanzania's agriculture. Chapter 6 analyzes the extent of rural poverty and the status of food security. Chapter 7 explores the linkages between agriculture and the rest of the economy. Finally, Chapters 8 and 9 summarize the main conclusions and list references, respectively.
