Kani Township (Burmese: ကနီမြို့နယ်) is a township in Yinmabin District, Sagaing Region, Myanmar.[2] The township is subdivided into 188 villages grouped into 45 village tract and 1 town, the principal town of Kani, which contains 3 urban wards.[1]

Natural spirulina is available from Twinma and Taung Pauk[3] but their combined yield is a lot less than the yield of Twintaung of Budalin Township.[4]

The township borders Mingin Township in the north and Budalin Township in the east. There are Pone Taung Hills in the west of the township. There are also many streams in the township. At the age of Myanmar dynasties, its area was wider.[5]
