Agroref Uganda had an opportunity to engage representatives from @PUM_nl led by Tom Borghols country manager Uganda. This followed our other meetings seeking partnership with PUM, trying to tap into their wide experience in supporting start-ups and farmers. Hoping for the best.

Second Day. Africa's population will reach 2.5_ 2.6 billion by 2050.
Meeting food demand may require 70% in agricultural production
That means that agrifood systems need to be modernised.

AgroRef Uganda is represented at the ReSAKSS Annual Conference #ATOR2025 "Moving the Technology Frontiers in African Agrifood Systems", organising by @AKADEMIYA2063 & @_AfricanUnion
Key point to note is that Africa has focused on land expansion as opposed to technology adoption

[AgroRef Uganda @AgrorefUganda]

It seems the challenges the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) poses to East African farming community is enormous.

We had a fruitful meeting as members of the coalition against torture spearheaded by @actvuganda
We laid out strategies on advocating for an election period free from torture, peacefully engaging state agencies to promote this agenda. Farmers suffer a lot because of violence
