The Chaga (or Chagga) tribe lives on the slopes and around Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. They are bantu speaking indigenous Africans and the third largest ethnic group in Tanzania. Their relative wealth comes from the favorable climate of the area and successful agricultural methods, which include extensive irrigation systems, terracing, and continuous organic fertilization methods practiced for thousands of years. Although bananas are their staple food, they also cultivate various crops, including yams, beans and maize. In agricultural exports, they are best known for their Arabica coffee.
