Hassan Abbas, a spokesman for Tanzania, said at a press conference yesterday that Tanzania's economic growth is still strong, with an average economic growth rate of 7%, which is one of the fastest growing countries in Africa and ranks first among the eastern countries. In contrast, the economic growth rates of Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda are 6.4%, 6% and 4.5% respectively. Reports from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund also show that Tanzania's economy has sustained and rapid growth.

Abbas believes that the reform measures implemented by the Tanzanian government in many development fields, such as health, energy and education, as well as a large number of investment projects and increasing fiscal revenue, are the main reasons for achieving sustained economic growth.

In terms of fiscal revenue, Tanzania's fiscal revenue was 1.069 trillion in 20 17, an increase of 15% compared with 925 billion in 20 15. In terms of attracting investment, according to the research report of Quantum Global, Tanzania ranks eighth in Africa and first among the eastern countries in attracting foreign investment. In 20 15, Tanzania ranked only 19 among all African countries. In addition, from July 20 15 to March 20 17, the number of newly established enterprises in Tanzania was 225,000, while the number of closed enterprises was only 7,277.

At present, there are 44 million hectares of arable land in China, including 6,543,800 hectares. The main crops are corn, wheat, rice, sorghum, millet and cassava, and the main cash crops are coffee, cotton, sisal, cashew nuts, cloves, tea, tobacco leaves and pyrethrum. Because the grain output is affected by natural disasters and the grain allocation is limited by the transportation situation, Tanzania needs to import a large amount of grain from foreign countries or request foreign assistance every year. In the highest year, there was a grain shortage of more than 500,000 tons. In recent years, the government put forward the strategy of "agriculture first" and the plan of southern economic development corridor, vigorously promoted agricultural production, and grain output rebounded rapidly. At present, there is more than enough self-sufficiency in good years, and a small amount can be exported to neighboring countries.

There are about 50 million hectares of land suitable for developing animal husbandry in China, and only 26 million hectares have been developed and utilized at present. The output value of animal husbandry grows slowly and the productivity is low. Most refined meat and dairy products still need to be imported from South Africa, Kenya and western countries.

The east is close to the Indian Ocean, and there are many lakes in the west. It is one of the important fish producing areas on the east coast of Africa. Freshwater fishing is the main fishery, accounting for more than 80% of the total catch in China, among which Lake Victoria is the main freshwater fish producing area, followed by Lake Tanganyika. Limited by technology and funds, marine fisheries are mainly limited to offshore fishing, and offshore operations have not yet started.

The forest area of the mainland is 4410.4 million square kilometers, of which the protected forest is10.3 million square kilometers, accounting for10.4% of the land area; Soil and water conservation forest 1.6 million square kilometers.

The tropical forest in the whole territory is 65438+100000 square kilometers, accounting for about 2% of the forest area.

Ministry of Commerce of People's Republic of China (PRC)-Tanzania ranks among the fastest growing countries in the world.
