The British mandate in Tanganyika envisioned to develop another “White man's country” in Iringa. This move was widely supported by Lord Delamere who encouraged Europeans to establish settlements in Iringa’s highlands due to the fertile land. Among the many projects envisioned was that of cattle husbandry which brought the dipping scheme which aimed at controlling East Coast Fever disease. In a process of executing this programme the labourers who involved had grievances which in a way expounds the nature of labour in the dipping scheme itself. Therefore, this article uses dipping scheme in Iringa to navigate its major labour sections and major grievances of the labourers by using archival; sources from the Tanzania National Archive.
