Dagaa是斯瓦希里语中几种小鱼的总称。在坦桑尼亚，一些品种的晒干dagaa被分发给人们食用。近年来，邻国对山竹干的需求不断扩大，使桑给巴尔岛成为对刚果(金)山竹出口业的中心。本文分析了从捕捞到装运渔获物的达加产业每个阶段的参与者的经济活动。结果表明，存在三种不同类型的中间商，他们通过分担不确定的自然条件带来的风险，与渔民建立了一种团结。在刚果民主共和国的中间商和批发商之间，信贷交易鼓励持续的贸易。这些行为者之间的互惠贸易关系导致了Dagaa行业的迅速扩张。然而，新的参与者，即从中间商那里收集干达加并将其供应给批发商的代理商，正在加入这个行业。目前，中间商的利润大约是批发商的一半，但新代理商的活动威胁着中间商的利润。因此，这些试图使自己的利润最大化的新代理商的崛起，可能会阻碍达加行业中较老参与者之间现有的关系。
Dagaa is the general name for several varieties of small fish in Swahili. In Tanzania, some varieties of sun-dried dagaa are distributed for human consumption. In recent years, the demand for dried dagaa has expanded in neighboring countries, making Zanzibar Island the hub of the dagaa export industry to the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). This paper analyzes the economic activities of the actors at each stage of the dagaa industry, from fishing to shipping the catch. The results indicate that there are three different types of middlemen, and they have built a kind of solidarity with fishermen by sharing risks resulting from uncertain natural conditions. Credit trade, which encourages continuous trade, is observed between the middlemen and wholesalers of the DRC. Reciprocal trade relationships among these actors have led to the rapid expansion of the dagaa industry. However, new actors, namely agents those who collect dried dagaa from middlemen and supply it to wholesalers, are joining this industry. Currently, the profit of the middlemen is about half that of the wholesalers, but the activities of the new agents threaten the middlemen’s profits. Thus, the rise of these new agents, who try to maximize their own profit, can hamper the existing relationships among the older actors of the dagaa industry.
