Uganda stands as a vital player in East Africa with 40% of the region’s arable land.
There are a lot of opportunities along the organic agric value chain and production including trading, exporting which we can have from the G77 Summit.

We encourage investors to explore opportunity in establishing processing facilities in the organic food sector.

Coffee is the only crop where we have a comparative advantage. How do we ensure we double coffee production in Uganda and earn more out of it? Hon Lawrence Songa. #OrganicWeek23
