The Land a Resource

Agriculture contributes over 25% directly and 29% indirectly to Uganda's GDP and provides income to over 75% of Ugandans. Modern agriculture is complex, requiring specialized professionals who can be producers and provide skills for research, innovation, and management of crises in agriculture. Our programs are designed to address specific setbacks to sustainable agricultural productivity and national development through training and producing graduates with specialized skills in various agricultural fields.
