Abstract
The Integrated Value Chain Financing (IVCF) model adopted by the Tanzania Agricultural Development Bank (TADB) represents an innovative and holistic approach to agricultural financing aimed at transforming Tanzania’s agricultural sector. Through this model, TADB strategically intervenes along the entire agricultural value chain from production, processing, storage, and marketing by addressing financial gaps and enabling access to tailored financial products and services. The IVCF model emphasizes stakeholder collaboration, including farmers, agribusinesses, input suppliers, processors, and financial institutions, ensuring value addition and risk mitigation across each stage. By focusing on value chain development, the IVCF model strengthens linkages, enhances productivity, promotes agro-industrialization, and ultimately contributes to food security and inclusive economic growth. This model has been instrumental in bridging the financing gaps in agriculture, improving efficiency, and supporting the development of sustainable agri-finance ecosystems in Tanzania.
