Service Detail
Seed Industry Excellence in Dryland Crops
Empowering farmers starts with the right seed—Agrify is proud to be part of the solution.
Agrify has cultivated strong expertise in the production, distribution, and promotion of improved seeds for dryland crops such as sorghum, millets, and pigeon peas crops that are critical to building resilience in semi-arid and drought-prone regions of Tanzania.
Through deep engagement with smallholder farmer groups, Agrify has:
- Strengthened community seed systems by training local seed producers in Quality Declared Seed (QDS) standards and linking them with certification services.
- Promoted drought-tolerant and early-maturing varieties of sorghum and millets to support food security under erratic climatic conditions.
- Facilitated the adoption of marketable, pest-resistant pigeon pea varieties, boosting both household nutrition and income in regions such as the Southern Highlands and Central Tanzania.
- Worked with public and private partners to pilot and scale innovative seed technologies for dryland farming.
- Created demand for improved seeds through demonstration plots, farmer field schools, and agro-dealer engagement, ensuring last-mile delivery and adoption.
This track record has positioned Agrify as a trusted partner in driving climate-smart agriculture, resilient seed systems, and smallholder farmer empowerment.
QDS Seed Deliver Model
Agrify implements a robust QDS seed delivery model that connects smallholder farmers to essential services across the seed value chain. The company enables farmer groups to access early generation seeds, receive certification and inspection services through accredited institutions, and benefit from structured training and awareness programs on quality seed production. Moreover, Agrify facilitates market linkages for QDS producers, creating economic opportunities while increasing the availability of improved seeds at the community level.
Agrify has worked with smallholder farmer groups across various regions including Singida, Dodoma, Manyara, Songwe, Geita, Mara, and Sumbawanga. This wide geographical reach reflects the company’s commitment to inclusive agricultural development and its ability to deliver scalable solutions in diverse agro-ecological zones.
Agrify has worked with key dryland sorghum varieties including TARISROR1, TARISOR2, and MACIA, known for their adaptability and performance in drought-prone areas. The company is now actively exploring and preparing to scale the 5 newly released TARI varieties; TARISRO3 to TARISOR7 varieties to further enhance farmer access to improved, resilient sorghum varieties.
Strategic Collaboration in the Seed Sector
To amplify its impact, Agrify Company Limited works hand-in-hand with key institutions including:
- Tanzania Agricultural Research Institute (TARI): Accessing breeder and foundation seeds of improved varieties, facilitating on-farm trials, and promoting technology transfer to farmers.
- Tanzania Official Seed Certification Institute (TOSCI): Ensuring compliance with national seed quality standards and supporting seed certification and QDS training for local producers.
- Local Government Authorities (LGAs): Mobilizing and training farmer groups, coordinating extension services, and expanding local seed distribution networks at the ward and village levels. This multi-stakeholder collaboration has been instrumental in expanding access to high-quality seed, increasing adoption of improved varieties, and enhancing agricultural productivity and resilience in Tanzania’s dryland regions.
Collaborative Solutions for Sustainable Agricultural Growth
To expand its outreach and deepen its impact, Agrify actively builds partnerships with organisation including Non-Government Organizations (NGOs), Local Government Authorities (LGAs), and private sector players to co-create innovative solutions and scale seed distribution networks, extending its reach to underserved farming communities.
As a leading, farmer-centered solution provider, Agrify bridges the gap between innovation and accessibility by connecting rural farmers to improved seeds, quality assurance services, technical training, and reliable market linkages. This integrated approach empowers farmers to become both producers and suppliers of improved Quality Declared Seeds (QDS), boosting productivity, strengthening resilience to climate shocks, and unlocking sustainable income opportunities.
With deep penetration into remote areas and a commitment to inclusive partnerships, Agrify stands as a trusted ally in transforming livelihoods and advancing food security across Tanzania.
