Nyayo Tea Zones Mandate
Nyayo Tea Zones Development Corporation is a State Corporation in the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Development with the mandate to conserve gazetted forests using the buffer zone model.
The Corporation grows tea and other tree species as a buffer to keep humans away from the gazetted forests.
This model has allowed the forests in the water tower catchment areas to flourish and greatly reduced illegal logging and curbed human encroachment.

The buffer zones covered a stretch of about 300 km, or about 3,000 hectares during the Corporation’s initial years.
However, the Nyayo Tea Zones have expanded to cover 943 km (or 9,430 hectares) of tea and assorted tree species protecting over 975,582 hectares of gazetted forests which is about 0.96 percent of the entire forest cover in the country.
