| dc.description | The commercialization of agriculture in Uganda is faced with a number of challenges, including low productivity and poor quality of products, non-sustainable supplies, limited value addition and agroprocessing initiatives, inefficient and ineffective marketing systems, low and fluctuating prices, poor post-harvest management, restricted access to market information, and inadequate business and marketing skills, among others. This has led to the non-realization of competitive returns to vulnerable smallholder farmers, confining them to a vicious cycle of poverty. Although trade liberalization in the country has opened up more markets, it has also rendered the commercial environment extremely competitive for vulnerable smallholder farmers. Against this background, the project focused on promoting pro-poor growth and economic transformation, which would allow vulnerable households to tap into and benefit from developed value chains and marketing systems, and expanded domestic, regional and international markets for agricultural products. | |
