Majaliwa was speaking in the political capital Dodoma during his meeting with 10 regional commissioners from cotton-growing regions.
"It was high time that cotton farmers benefited from their sweat," he told the meeting, organized to discuss the revival of cotton farming in the regions of Shinyanga, Singida, Kagera, Tabora, Morogoro, Mara Uomo Nike Air Max TN Nere Rosse Scontate , Mwanza, Simiyu, Katavi and Geita.
"We are determined to revive cultivation of our major cash crops including cotton," Majaliwa said. "I have started with you because I know you have the capacity to supervise and guide farmers."
The prime minister directed the regional commissioners to make sure that district extension officers worked closely with farmers at all the stages, from farm preparation to harvesting.
"The main job of extension officers in these regions will be to ensure enough cotton yields in the coming farming season," he said.
Majaliwa said cotton had to become the number one export crop as it had been in previous years when people referred to it as "white gold."

NEW YORK, Feb. 5 (Xinhua) -- U.S. stocks closed sharply lower on Monday, with the Dow plummeting 4.60 percent, as the market took a heavy hit from panic sales.

Monday's rout extended a steep sell-off from the previous session. On Friday, U.S. stocks plunged, with the Dow slumping over 650 points, as investors worried that the Federal Reserve may hike rates on a faster pace after an upbeat jobs report.
U.S. total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 200,000 in January, beating market consensus, and the unemployment rate stayed unchanged at 4.1 percent Uomo Nike Air Max 97 Tutte Bianche Scontate , the Labor Department reported Friday.
Analysts said the market is now thinking about the possibility of the Fed raising interest rates four times this year, after the central bank in December suggested three more increases in 2018.
Investor sentiment was also dampened by a global rout in stock markets. Most European and Asian equity markets finished sharply lower Monday, with Japanese stocks suffering their biggest one-day drop since Nov. 9, 2016.

Reports of discrimination in English soccer have increased, anti--discrimination group Kick It Out revealed Tuesday.
The organization said it received 184 reports of discrimination between -August and December 28 last year, -compared to 136 for the same period during the 2013-14 season.
Racism (117) and anti-Semitic (32) abuse were the most common forms of discrimination reported, but the group said the latest figures could represent only the tip of the iceberg.
"The reality is the level of complaints submitted to us this season, despite showing a leap from 136 to 184 when compared to the midway point of the 2013-14 campaign, barely scratch the surface of a widespread problem," Kick It Out Director Roisin Wood said.
Kick It Out also logged 13 reports of sexism, up from two last season Uomo Nike Vapormax 2018 Arancione Nere Scontate , and 15 reports of discrimination based on -sexual orientation, compared to five in the previous season.
Meanwhile, the Football Association reported a 70 percent increase in reports of discriminatory behavior.
But the organization's head of judicial services, Mark Ives, believes the statistics reflect growing public confidence about reporting abuse, rather than an increase in incidents of discrimination.
"It may seem strange to say that it is good to see cases increase from 477 last year at grass-roots level to probably 800 this year, but we believe anecdotally the problem itself is not increasing, and that this represents people feeling more confident about reporting abuse Donne Nike Vapormax 2018 Viola Scontate ," he said.
The statistics have emerged at a time of heightened sensitivity regarding discrimination in the English game, with British police investigating three separate reports of racist behavior by -supporters of Chelsea.
Claims have also emerged that a group of West Ham United fans on a London Underground train sang anti-Semitic songs about rivals Tottenham.
