The role of Cashewnut Board of Tanzania (CBT) has changed dramatically since the year 2006, following the issuing of the Ministerial Circular on Rationalization of Crop Boards.
Welcome to CBT ...
The Cashewnut Board of Tanzania (CBT) is a corporate body established by the Act No. 21 of 1984 (As amended in 1993) to replace Tanzania Cashewnut Marketing Board. It is entrusted with the responsibility of regulating the development of the Cashew Industry in Tanzania. In undertaking its mandated roles the Cashewnut Board puts more emphasis in improving efficiency and effectiveness in the cashewnut sub sector in order to meet requirements of different stakeholders thereby enabling them to contribute to the national development.
The circular also makes a clear distinction between public sector functions, shared functions and private sector functions
