    Acknowledgement: The authors like to express their gratitude and thanks to Dr. Alastair Orr, Assistant Director at ICRISAT Nairobi Office who supervised the impact study, provided the necessary financial resources and gave valuable advice on the scope of analysis, methodology and structure of the report. Our special thanks go to all scientists from the Department of Research and Development, Ministry of Agriculture, Tanzania DRD who participated in the two days impact assessment workshop in Arusha (Tanzania) and/or contributed to this report. Without their enthusiasm, profound knowledge of all aspects of the sorghum sector in Tanzania and their commitment in elaborating the underlying economics and adoption information from all sorghum regions this study could not have been undertaken.
