President Museveni who is the Champion of Social-Economic transformation of Uganda as advised that Ugandans must embrace Agro-industrialization & Parish Development Model to secure a better future. The agricultural industrialization and parish model will ensure household income. Future Agriculture remains the mainstay of livelihoods for the vast majority of Ugandans in rural areas who engage in primary production and related non-farm activity. The key to rapid socio-economic transformation rests on unlocking the potential of agriculture through aggressive industrialization. This will enable the population engaged in farm and nonfarm rural economic activity to earn higher incomes and employment.
The Agro-industrialization strategy will address low production and productivity of primary agriculture, poor post-harvest handling and storage, limited value addition and insufficient market access. It will also permit adherence to food safety requirements and standards in export markets. This will also partially address the reason provided to create Non-Tariff (NTBs) in regional markets, which constrains agribusiness.
