MZ has since 2012 tested various interventions focusing on selected pilot sites in Tanga and Morogoro regions. The interventions mainly involved a) market linkages to overcome market barriers using dairy market hubs for improved access to bundled input and services, and to leverage technology interventions; b) innovation platforms/alliances at community and national levels for co-learning, policy dialogue to catalyze widespread innovation; and c) systems analysis and targeted research at individual nodes of the value chain.
