The government created Waste Management Act No. 49 of 2020, a law that encompasses waste management, producer liability, hazardous waste regulations, the treatment and disposal of waste, landfill management, waste incineration, waste transportation across the country's borders, and environmental and public health standards.

As Uganda faces rising temperatures and irregular rainfall patterns, initiatives like these are crucial in ensuring sustainable farming practices that are able to cope with future climate changes.

The government aims at making the country a market leader in the generation and dissemination of appropriate agricultural technologies for sustainable development in semi-arid regions that cover the cattle corridor and five other agro-ecological zones comprising the Eastern Savanna (Teso) region, Karamoja dry lands, Lango, Acholi, and west Nile sub-regions.
