I’m thrilled to share some exciting updates with you from our recent projects. To begin with I’d like to highlight the incredible progress made by Edith Kirungi, a dedicated farmer who has transformed her farming practices through our trainings. Edith’s story is a testament to the impact of proper training and dedication in agriculture. Her success in improving her banana plantation and implementing sustainable farming practices is truly inspiring. In other news, the challenges facing maize farmers in Uganda, particularly regarding low-quality produce and low prices, are concerning. However, KRC-Uganda is committed to supporting small holder farmers and maize processors in improving the maize value chain.
Through our efforts, we aim to ensure that maize remains a vital crop in Uganda’s food system.
Furthermore, our partnership with Goal Uganda to implement the “Young Africa Works Markets for Youth Project” is yielding positive results.
Youth champions are actively engaging with leaders to address challenges hindering youth participation in the agricultural value chain. The recent renovation of the Kiragura – Kyamiransimbi road in Hoima District, demanded by youth champions, is a testament to the effectiveness of youth advocacy in creating positive change in communities. Lastly, our Kulea Watoto project in Kyegegwa District is making significant strides in improving livelihoods and nutrition through establishing demonstration
gardens at Early Childhood Development centers. These gardens not only serve as learning centers but also empower caregivers and communities to become self-sufficient in food production.
These stories highlight the impact of our work in empowering individuals and communities to improve their livelihoods through sustainable agriculture practices. We are grateful for your continued support and look forward to sharing more success stories with you in the future.
