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.
The leaders and people of Karamoja have demonstrated unity, strong leadership, and a genuine enthusiasm for development and socio-economic transformation.
