Since October, the wholesale beef prices in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, have increased to USD 3.22-3.43/kg compared to the previous prices of around USD 2.57-2.79/kg. According to the Tanzania Meat Board, the price increase was caused by a meat scarcity as a result of a shortage of pastures. Unlike in 2021, the price in 2022 has risen earlier, and given that the holiday season is approaching, there is a chance that the price will rise even further. In 2021, the highest price was quoted at USD 3.09-3.21/kg.
