Fishing

Fisheries

In Iringa Region fishing is mainly carried out in Mtera Dam, which is located in Iringa District Council, as well as in Ngwazi and Nzivi natural dams situated in Mufindi District Council; tilapia and catfish are the dominant species. There is a great potential for investment in fish farming, spot fishing as well as cage culture particularly in Mtera Dam.

Fishing and fish farming activities are considered to be good business for substantial income as well as revenue generation, as it plays a great role in raising the regional and national GDP. In 2017/2018 a total of 2,245.35 metric tonnes of fish were harvested, which was worth TZS 156,207,281; and in the year 2018/19 a total of 2,551.30 metric tonnes  of fish generated  revenue worth TZS 343,759,448.
