Following a successful monitoring visit to #DigitalConnectors in Bugiri, District in Eastern Uganda on Thursday July 24, 2025, the #AIRTEAProject Steering Committee members comprising Executive Directors of @FARA, Dr. @aggreyagumya; and Dr. @sdbaguma , ASARECA on Friday July 25, 2025 visited #PatiencePaysFarmer group in Kayunga District also in Eastern Uganda, one of the organized groups in Third Party Project #TPP6. This project seeks to enhance access to markets by smallholder farmers, especially women and youth who are engaged in the tomato value chain. The lead implementer, #UgandaChristianUniversity @UCUniversity, has connected these farmers to an off-taker, #DanAgro, a processing firm, which has entered a contract farming arrangement with the group. Through this arrangement, the off-taker has offered the farmers a stable price of Ush 300 (about USD 83) for a standard box of tomatoes, and committed to honour this price on time irrespective of the season and size of tomato. Besides, the off-taker has teamed up with a seed company, Syova, to ensure that quality seeds and pesticides are provided to farmers on credit in addition to training on Good Agronomic Practices. The off-taker also picks the produce on farm. On their part, the farmers have committed to practice Good Agronomic Practices and supply required amounts of tomato to meet the demand of Dan Agro-processing plant. This arrangement has helped stabilize prices for the farmers, which in the past would fluctuate down to Ush100,00 (about USD 27). Through this arrangement, the project has surpassed their target of reaching 300 farmers and instead directly impacted up 500 and about 4000 indirectly. Farmers in this group testify that the arrangement has motivated them to indulge without reservation as they find it gainful compared to their past endeavors. This initiative is made possible through the #AIRTEAProject, which focuses on strengthening capacities of youth and women in multi-stakeholder Innovation Platforms (IPs) to undertake gainful farming. #AIRTEA is supported by the Organization of African, Caribbean, and Pacific States (OACPS) through the ACP Innovation Fund which is funded by the European Union (@EU_Commission ) and is managed by a consortium consisting of the Forum for Agricultural Research in Africa (@FARAinfo ), @ASARECA and the Eastern Africa Farmers Federation (@EAFFinfo ).

All is well in the campaign to scale out the concept of #DigitalConnectors in Bugiri district in Eastern Uganda. The District Production and Marketing Officer, Dr. Sarah Majuga signaled willingness to integrate the concept, which is gathering pace in East Africa courtesy of the #AIRTEAProject which has been running for the last five years in Uganda, Kenya and Rwanda. According to Dr. Majuga who heads agricultural production in the district, efforts are already in place to integrate the concept into the #ParishDevelopmentModel, a government rural agricultural transformation framework, to facilitate access by farmers to #agriculturaltechnologies, #markets, #inputs and #extensionservices. “We are predisposing existing government structures to the AIRTEA initiatives to leverage the impacts of the project interventions. “I like the concept of stakeholder engagement which has eased flow and sharing of information,” she said. Dr. Majuga was briefing #AIRTEAProject Steering Committee members comprising Executive Directors of @FARA, Dr. Aggrey Agumya; and @ASARECA Dr. Sylvester Dickson Baguma, on the sustainability of the approach in promoting the utilization of digital innovations during a courtesy call on her in her office in Bugiri. The Executive Directors are currently in Bugiri on their third day of the two-weeks activity that is expected to cover six project sites of six TPPs spread over eight Ugandan districts of Arua, Lira, Dokolo, Bugiri, Kayunga, Wakiso, Mityana, and Kisoro. They were guided through the tour to hear from the digital connectors and the affected farmers by implementing partners, the Uganda Forum for Agricultural Advisory Services (@UFAAS13 ) and the African Forum for Agricultural Advisory Services (@afaasinfo ) under the AIRTEA third-party project (AIRTEA_TP 009), Digital Connectors for Farming Communities (DC4FC). The project aims at accelerating sustainable agricultural extension services in farming communities. In Uganda nine young agripreneurs have been equipped with digital tools, and provided training and mentorship to enable them establish viable and sustainable agricultural advisory services enterprises aimed at benefiting farming communities. The AIRTEA Project focuses on strengthening capacities of youth and women in multi-stakeholder Innovation Platforms (IPs). AIRTEA is supported by the Organization of African, Caribbean, and Pacific States (OACPS) through the ACP Innovation Fund which is funded by the European Union (@EU_Commission ) and is managed by a consortium consisting of the Forum for Agricultural Research in Africa (FARA), ASARECA and the Eastern Africa Farmers Federation (EAFF).
