The Songwe region, rich in agricultural production, is situated in southern Tanzania bordering Zambia and Malawi. This is the location of the Mbozi District, populated with 175 villages and around 515,000 people.
One of these villages is the Iyenga village, which was originally a part of the Itumpi village, but the villagers found it difficult to access government resources due to distance, and thus created their own village in 1974. The government also established a hospital and school within the community to provide the villages with essential resources. This is also the location of the Iyenga Agricultural Marketing Cooperative Society (AMCOS), which was created in 2003 under the Tanzanian Cooperative Act. Today, the AMCOS has 292 members, with 34 females and 258 males.
