[8] Singida Region has a total surface area of 49,438 km2, out of which 95.5 km2 or 0.19 percent are covered by water bodies of Lake Eyasi, Kitangiri, Singidani, Kindai, Munang and Balengida.

[9] The area is a portion of Tanzania's semi-arid central region, which has an unpredictable rainfall pattern, brief rainy seasons, and a fairly severe drought once every four years.

The driest section of the region, where the mean annual rainfall is less than 550 mm, is located on the eastern side of Manyoni District, close to the Bahi Swamp and the Rift Valley depression of Mgori and Shelui divisions.

[13] The Wembere Steppe and the Bahi Swamp are frequently completely covered in alluviums, which are two main superficial geological deposits in the Singida Region.

Sandy colluvial or slope wash materials, created from the neighborhood's basement rocks, surround the "mbuga."

The second deposit is of Cainozoic consisting of cemented sand, literate and sandstone occupying only a very small proportion of the region.

[15] The Singida Region is located in the northern portion of Tanzania's central plateau, which rises to elevations of 1,200 to 1,500 meters above sea level.

A significant scarp that can reach heights of 180 meters, which is the eastern portion of the Great Rift Valley, surrounds the area on all sides with the exception of the south-eastern border.

Massive outcrops or rocky peaks made of granite and metamorphic rocks are a notable aspect of the land escarpment in the Iramba and Singida areas.

These outcrops, often referred to as inselbergs, are the remains of old land surfaces that have been eroded to create a vast, gently sloping peneplain in the nearby areas.

[16] The following are the fundamental drainage systems in the Singida Region: The only permanent river in the area is Sibiti, which originates in the Mkalama District and empties into Lake Kitangiri.

[17] Ndurumo, Mpura, Kisukwani, and Wembere rivers originate in the Iramba District and flow north and northwest into Lake Kitangiri and the Eyasi Basin.

Ponde and Bubu rivers originate in the Ikungi district and flow into the Bahi Swamp, which stretches across the Rift Valley's floor into the Dodoma Region.

Internal drainage affects a large portion of the plateau, creating salty and alkaline lakes including Singidani, Kindai, and Balengida Singida.

The majority of the region's monetary revenue comes from agriculture, primarily from the production of maize, sweet potatoes, paddy, sorghum, peanut, cotton, sunflower, cashew nuts, and cassava.

In the Singida Region, the main food crops are maize, sweet potatoes, paddy, sorghum, and cassava.

[22] In many of the communities in the area, livestock is a significant source of revenue and defines the economic and social standing of the home.

Sunflower, cotton, groundnuts, onions, simsim, finger millet, and lentils are some of the most important cash crops.

[24] Three years, from 2016–17 to 2018–19, saw Singida Region harvest a total of 407,911.5 metric tonnes of cash crops, setting a record.

Onion (30.19%), cowpeas (6.7%), groundnuts (6.2%), cotton (2.4%), simsim (1.8%), Kartamu (1.4%), dengu (1.2%), sugar cane (0.3%), tobacco (0.1%), and cashewnut (0.1%) are the next-highest commodities.

[27] Onion output from 2016/17 to 2018/19 had a total annual average production of 84,835.1 tonnes, placing it second in terms of quantity after sunflower.

Other economic contributions are mining, commerce, and natural resources consisting of agro-forestry, wildlife, bee keeping and fishing.

[33] Poultry farming is an important aspect of life for both rural and urban residents, and it makes a big difference in reducing poverty and enhancing food security.

The large-scale Mount Meru Millers sunflower refinery is capable of generating 182,500 metric tonnes annually.

To date, SIDO, Measurement Agency, and TPSF have all provided business training to a total of 4,548 merchants at various times.

[43] Tanzania's forestry strategy places a strong emphasis on assisting local populations in protecting their land.

These game reserves are home to a vast range of species, including elephants, buffalo, lions, leopards, giraffes, impala, zebra, baboons, monkeys, and a large number of different birds.

This entails relying on rainmaking, and sorcery, and strong respect and deference for ancestors who are looked to for spiritual guidance.

[54] The main political party representing the Tanzanian government is CCM (Chama Cha Mapinduzi), which the presidents have five year terms and can be reelected once.

Singida Region is divided into six districts, each administered by a council (note: the regions changed between the 2002 census and the 2012 census so the figures are not directly comparable): Note: * - formerly part of Manyoni District until 2015[57] In most cases, Singida positively exceeds national standards as far as infant mortality, health unit ratio to population, and maternal mortality rate.
