Kwa siku mbili mfululizo, tumepata fursa ya kuambatana na ugeni kutoka Ubalozi wa Ireland nchini Tanzania Embassy of Ireland in Tanzania katika ziara ya kukagua maendeleo ya Mradi wa Climate Smart Agriculture Project II (CSAP II), unaotekelezwa kwa ushirikiano kati ya ActionAid Tanzania na WFP WFP Africa , kwa ufadhili wa Ubalozi wa Ireland.

Katika ziara hii, tumetembelea Wilaya za Chamwino (Nhinhi) na Kongwa mkoani Dodoma, ambapo tumejifunza na kushuhudia kwa vitendo namna mradi unavyowezesha wakulima kupitia kilimo himilivu cha zao la mtama.

Miongoni mwa mambo tuliyoyaona ni matumizi ya umwagiliaji kwa njia ya matone (drip irrigation), juhudi za kuboresha upatikanaji wa lishe na uhifadhi wa chakula, uimarishaji wa vikundi vya wanawake vya kusaidiana, upatikanaji wa masoko ya mazao, pamoja na matumizi ya mashine katika kupura mtama baada ya kuvuna.

Mbinu na teknolojia hizi zinaendelea kuwasaidia wakulima kuongeza uzalishaji, kupunguza changamoto za baada ya mavuno, kuboresha lishe na kuongeza fursa za kipato, huku wakijenga ustahimilivu dhidi ya athari za mabadiliko ya tabianchi.

Katika mazingira ya mabadiliko ya tabianchi, kulinda mbegu za asili si suala la kilimo pekee bali ni suala la usalama wa chakula, uanuai wa kibayolojia, maarifa ya asili na nguvu ya wakulima.

Mbegu za asili zinaweza kusaidia jamii:
✅ Kuimarisha usalama wa chakula wakati wa misimu migumu
✅ Kupunguza utegemezi wa mbegu za biashara zenye gharama kubwa
✅ Kulinda uanuai wa mazao na mazingira
✅ Kuimarisha nafasi ya wanawake k**a walinzi wa mbegu
✅ Kuhifadhi maarifa ya kilimo yaliyorithishwa kwa vizazi

Lakini ili mifumo hii iwe imara, tunahitaji kuwekeza katika mifumo ya mbegu inayosimamiwa na wakulima, benki za mbegu za jamii, kilimo ikolojia, na upatikanaji wa mbegu kwa wanawake na wakulima vijana.

👉 Swipe kujifunza kwa nini kulinda mbegu za asili ni hatua muhimu katika kujenga mifumo ya chakula inayostahimili mabadiliko ya tabianchi.

💬 Je, katika jamii yako kuna mbegu za asili ambazo zimehifadhiwa na kutumika kwa vizazi? Tuambie kwenye comments.

In the face of climate change, protecting indigenous seeds is not just an agricultural issue; it is about food security, biodiversity, indigenous knowledge, and the power of farmers.

Indigenous seeds can help communities:

✅ Strengthen food security during difficult seasons
✅ Reduce dependence on costly commercial seeds
✅ Protect crop diversity and the environment
✅ Strengthen the role of women as seed custodians
✅ Preserve farming knowledge passed down through generations

But for these systems to remain strong, we need to invest in farmer-managed seed systems, community seed banks, agroecology, and access to seeds for women and young farmers.

👉 Swipe to learn why protecting indigenous seeds is an important step towards building food systems that are resilient to climate change.

💬 Does your community have indigenous seeds that have been preserved and used for generations? Tell us in the comments.

Kwa vizazi vingi, wakulima wamehifadhi, kuboresha na kubadilishana mbegu za asili ambazo zimeendelea kulisha familia zetu na kulinda bioanuwai ya Tanzania.

Leo, mbegu hizi zinakabiliwa na changamoto zinazohatarisha uwepo wake. Ndiyo maana tunazindua kampeni ya ili kuongeza uelewa kuhusu umuhimu wa mbegu za asili, kuhamasisha ulinzi wa haki za wakulima, na kuhamasisha sera zinazotambua na kuimarisha mifumo ya mbegu inayosimamiwa na wakulima.

📍 Tuungane katika safari hii ya kulinda mbegu zetu ili kulinda kesho yetu.

===========================

For generations, farmers have saved, improved, and exchanged indigenous seeds that have continued to nourish our families and safeguard Tanzania's agrobiodiversity.

Today, these seeds face growing challenges that threaten their survival. That is why we are launching the OurSeedsOurHeritage campaign to raise awareness about the importance of indigenous seeds, promote the protection of farmers' seed rights, and advocate for policies that recognize and strengthen farmer-managed seed systems.

📍 Join us on this journey to protect our seeds and secure our future.
