This study uses a unique panel dataset on micro data with 786 households over 3 years (2014, 2016 and 2018) at the community level in Tanzania, assessing the contribution of different income sources on the changes in income inequality and poverty. The results show that in contrast to other income sources, non-farm self-employment is the only source with a constant poverty-decreasing effect. The inconsistency of the different income sources over time can also be observed for the effects on income inequality. Future research is needed to grasp the effect on inequality in more detail assessing its determinants and causal relationships.

小农生计活动对收入不平等和贫困的影响：坦桑尼亚农村地区的案例研究

本研究使用坦桑尼亚社区层面 3 年（2014 年、2016 年和 2018 年）786 个家庭的独特微观数据面板数据集，评估不同收入来源对收入不平等和贫困变化的贡献。结果表明，与其他收入来源相比，非农自营职业是唯一具有持续减贫效果的来源。不同收入来源随时间的不一致也可以观察到对收入不平等的影响。未来的研究需要更详细地评估其决定因素和因果关系，以掌握对不平等的影响。
