Economy Tanzania

Economy - overview: Tanzania is one of the poorest countries in the
world. The economy is heavily dependent on agriculture, which accounts
for half of GDP, provides 85% of exports, and employs 80% of the work
force. Topography and climatic conditions, however, limit cultivated crops
to only 4% of the land area. Industry is mainly limited to processing
agricultural products and light consumer goods. The World Bank, the
International Monetary Fund, and bilateral donors have provided funds to
rehabilitate Tanzania's deteriorated economic infrastructure. Growth in
1991-2001 featured a pickup in industrial production and a substantial
increase in output of minerals, led by gold. Natural gas exploration
in the Rufiji Delta looks promising and production could start by
2002. Recent banking reforms have helped increase private sector growth
and investment. Continued donor support and solid macroeconomic policies
should support steady real GDP growth of 5% in 2002 and 2003.
