The UCDA team has strengthened ties with key stakeholders to elevate 🇺🇬’s coffee presence in China. Ugandan☕️ features prominently at the Jinda Coffee & Beverages Center, a major coffee hub. There is a promising export market for Uganda coffee in China which we can tap into.

I agree with you Hon. That is why we are still advising you against merging @CoffeeUganda. Coffee is a priority crop for Uganda that requires special attention like other jurisdictions do if we are to compete in the market.

We are still talking about things you must do to produce specialty arabicas. Spacing and retention of water in the garden is crucial. ⁦@CoffeeUganda⁩ ⁦@UCF_UG⁩ ⁦@africancoffees⁩ ⁦@naads_ug⁩ ⁦@OWC_ug⁩ ⁦@KingOyoOfficial⁩ ⁦@MAAIF_Uganda⁩

UCDA also gave out equipment for coffee stumping including pruning saws & bow saws. 53% of the coffee trees in Uganda are 8 years and above. The average productivity of old trees is 1.3 kg/tree for trees of 8-11 years, and 1.0 kg/tree for trees of 12 years & above. @FredBwino
