Abstract
Despite the initiatives that have been taken by the government and different stakeholders, the availability of sugar is uncertain in Tanzania for years. It is on that basis that this article uses a historical approach to analyse the mismatch between sugarcane farming and industrial processing capacity in the Kilombero valley. The shortage of sugar indicates the missing link between sugarcane farming and industrial processing capacity that is coupled with business interest of sugar dealers. We indicate that the sugar industry has been webbed in divided interests of promoting farmers on one hand and maintaining business profits on the other.
