HC Deb 05 March 1951 vol 485 c23W
Mr. Vane

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what was the total of native grown groundnuts produced in Tanganyika in each of the years from 1935 to 1950.

Mr. J. Griffiths

The estimated production of native-grown groundnuts in Tanganyika was as follows:

Year Tons
1946 14,140
1947 21,200
1948 16,750
1949 10,880

I regret that figures for 1950 and the years 1935–45 are not available.
