Tanzania is one of the largest sorghum grower in Sub Saharan Africa, but very little is known as to why sorghum is not used in many households as food. The world weather is becomming more and more hostile as the world temperature is rising. Sorghum plant can supersevere a very dry wheather condition, and is a very appropriate in semi arid areas of our countries like Dodoma, Singida, Kondoa, Shinyanga etc. I hapend to be an expert in the processing of sorghum to the edible and palatable level. I have tried to write proposals to some statutory organisation in the country for the same projects but in vain.
Now I am bringing to Jamii F, this item for input. Technologies for planting, harvesting, treashing, dehulling and producing flour are existing. What is needed now is to use people like the writer to drive them to function in our country.
If you think you can contribute an idea, or you know anything about sorghum processing in Tanzania, please let us share. tanzania imported 10 dehulling machine in early 80s, but I dont know what has hapened? If there is any project going on somewhere in Tanzania, please let us share.
