An international collaboration of 356 scientists in which Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA) is a collaborator has found almost identical patterns of tree diversity across tropical forests of the world. A study of more than one million trees across 1,568 tropical locations worldwide, published in Nature, observed that 2.2% of tree species make up 50% of the total number of trees in tropical forests across Africa, the Amazon (South America), and Southeast Asia, with each continent consisting of the same proportion of a few common species and many rare species.

The Department of Model Training Farm (DMTF) through the Pasture Management Units is showcasing practical livestock husbandry techniques to local communities, emphasizing the business aspect. This success is largely attributed to the established diverse pastures like Bracharia ruziziensis, Cenchrus ciliaris, Chloris gayana, Pennisetum purpureum, Juncao grass, and Guatemala grass, and more.

On April 29, 2024, Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA) welcomed a delegation of the Heads of Mission of the European Union.
