Mbeya. Mbinga District Council in Ruvuma Region expects to harvest 20,000 tonnes of coffee this season, as local authorities roll out targeted strategies to boost productivity and align local output with international market standards.

Mbinga is a major producer of commercial crops, notably maize and coffee, which sustain rural livelihoods and generate crucial own-source revenue for the council.
