Agricultural Intervention
Transforming Agriculture for Sustainable LivelihoodsEmpowering smallholder farmers with knowledge, resources and
market opportunities for sustainable livelihoods.
The Challenge
Despite increased investment in agriculture, over 75% of rural Ugandans remain subsistence farmers. Many lack access to quality inputs, services, market information and credit. Limited skills in farming and business management continue to keep rural households in poverty.
Overreliance on cash crops has in some cases led to food insecurity, malnutrition, environmental degradation and displacement.
Our mission is to help farmers overcome these constraints and build resilient, prosperous communities.
