Exploring Climate-Friendly Farming
Exploring Climate-Friendly Farming

We are all about promoting climate-smart agriculture in Uganda. We believe in farming practices that not only sustain the land but also adapt to and mitigate the impacts of climate change.

Our Climate-Smart Agriculture Projects, Services, and Programmes include but are not limited to:

  1. Agroforestry: Integrate trees into farming systems to enhance biodiversity, improve soil fertility, and provide additional income sources.
  2. Water Harvesting and Management: Implement techniques to capture and efficiently utilize rainwater, reducing reliance on unpredictable rainfall patterns.
  3. Conservation Agriculture: Promote minimum soil disturbance, crop rotation, and soil cover to improve soil health, reduce erosion, and enhance resilience to climate variability.
  4. Integrated Pest Management: Utilize natural predators, crop rotation, and resistant varieties to manage pests and diseases sustainably, minimizing the need for chemical inputs.
  5. Livestock Integration: Integrate livestock into farming systems to improve nutrient cycling, diversify income sources, and enhance overall farm resilience.
  6. Crop Diversification: Encourage the cultivation of a variety of crops to spread risk, enhance resilience to climate extremes, and improve nutrition.
  7. Soil Health Management: Implement practices such as composting, cover cropping, and organic amendments to build soil organic matter and fertility.
  8. Climate Information Services: Provide farmers with access to accurate weather forecasts and climate-related information to aid in decision-making and risk management.
  9. Capacity Building and Training: Offer workshops, training sessions, and demonstration plots to equip farmers with the knowledge and skills needed to adopt climate-smart practices effectively.
  10. Market Linkages: Facilitate access to markets for climate-smart produce, promoting economic opportunities for farmers while fostering sustainable value chains.
