#UAA News It was a productive day for our Board Chairperson, Hon. Victoria Sekitoleko who joined #AvoGold in Njeru Town Council for a pivotal Joint Media Advocacy session, with a focus on: strengthening Uganda's avocado sector. This collaboration is crucial for bridging the gap between supply and demand, ensuring our avocado industry meets its full potential on the global stage. More importantly, it catalyzes creating sustainable value and improving the livelihoods of the hardworking outgrowers who are the backbone of this industry.

#WorldCoffeeDayPost!! #Happy World Coffee Day! Today, we celebrate the hardworking coffee farmers who form the backbone of this global industry. But the story of coffee is often one of seasons of boom and bust. When the coffee harvest is over, many farmers face about 5 months of income instability. At Uganda Agribusiness Alliance (#UAA), we are #building #resilience and year-round #financial #stability for small holder coffee farmers in West Nile through a complementary horticulture initiative. By introducing high-value horticultural crops like onions, we are providing an alternative source of income during the coffee off-season. This means: ✅ Food on the table all year round. ✅ Financial cushioning against coffee price fluctuations. ✅ Diversified skills that make farming families more resilient to climate and market shocks. This World Coffee Day, #we #call for a holistic approach to empowering coffee farmers. True resilience comes from diversifying their income with alternative crops and unlocking greater value from their coffee harvest through #value-addition initiatives like processing, packaging & branding. This is the path to becoming year-round agripreneurs, not just seasonal growers. How are you supporting the long-term resilience of smallholder farmers? Share your insights below. #WorldCoffeeDay #FarmerResilience #Agribusiness #WestNile #Uganda #Horticulture #Livelihoods #ClimateResilience #Advocacy MAAIF Uganda Uganda Coffee Development Authority (UCDA)

#FarmerSpotlight! #UAA #Impact #Story: From Onions to School Fees!! This video highlights our farmer Okweda Alex from Nebbi District, who was struggling to earn an income before joining our horticulture initiative under the Oxfam-funded Power of Voices Partnerships (PVP) project. Today, Alex's onion farm is funding his child's education in Kampala. His story is a powerful reminder that agricultural development is about more than crops- it's about creating lasting change. However, Alex's journey also highlights ongoing challenges like market access, showing us where focused efforts are still needed. Through the Power of Voices Partnerships (PVP) project, #UAA implemented a strategic #horticulture #intervention. We introduced high-value crops like onions to provide farmers with a reliable income while they wait for their coffee to mature. We are proud to be partnering with communities in West Nile to unlock potential. #Agriculture #Development #Sustainability #ImpactInvesting #Uganda #PVPProject #UAA Read more about our work at: https://lnkd.in/dRVuQtj5 MAAIF Uganda Oxfam in Uganda

#National Spotlight on Agribusiness in West Nile! We are proud to share this powerful feature by #UBC TV News, highlighting the critical work of Uganda Agribusiness Alliance (UAA) under the #PowerOfVoicesPartnerships (PVP) project. For the last five years, we've worked alongside 1,388 farmers (665 women & 723 men) in West Nile, building their capacity in horticulture production. The result? Increased yields and stronger agribusiness skills. However, as this feature makes it clear, farmers' success is bottlenecked by infrastructure. Nebbi District Agricultural Officer, Joyce Piwa states: "The road network is very poor... yet when you grow these perishable things, you are supposed to sell them out." UAA has successfully linked farmers to markets, but without good roads, post-harvest losses remain high. We echo the call from local leaders like Gilbert Onencean (Principle Assistant CAO, Nebbi District) for the government to prioritize the improvement of community feeder roads. This is essential for a sustainable agribusiness value chain. #Watch the feature to hear directly from the farmers and leaders. #Share this post to amplify their voices. 🤝 #Partner with us. How can we work together to address this critical infrastructure gap?

#Listening to the Farmers' Voices!! The most valuable insights don't come from reports, but rather, they come from people. This week, our team has been on the ground in West Nile, engaging with our farmers under the Power of Voices Partnerships (PVP) Project, to listen to the true experts: the farmers themselves. These learning sessions are the cornerstone of our work. We're learning directly from farmers about their challenges, their innovative solutions, and what "success" truly looks like for them and their communities. We're gathering these crucial stories to document and share the incredible resilience and innovation happening in West Nile's agricultural sector. Stay tuned as we share the stories straight from the source! #WestNile #Agriculture #CommunityDevelopment #SuccessStories #Uganda #PVPProject
