Introduction
The project - Provide Coffee Seeds To 120 Farmers To End Poverty - #64957, is going on well and shows some success towards making coffee an economic crop in Uganda.
Historically, coffee is the most crop grown by almost every family in Uganda, supporting them in generating wealth. Bukomansimbi district in the central region is the most growing coffee area, making many households improving their social, environmental and economic standards, supporting their children for school fees.
Coffee Boost Country Economy
Uganda's coffee is performing very well on the international market, achieving a record-breaking export values in 2025, surpassing previous years' figures, with exports reaching over USD 2 Billion in the 12 months, leading up to May 2025. Report according to the Uganda Coffee Development Authority (UCDA)
OrgPlus - a New Remedy
We have found and testing a new treatment for pestecides that affect coffee growth. OrgPlus is an organic fertilizer and used to control pests that affect coffee leaves. Next to this, is biogas and slurry - the two lucrative technologies that households and smallholder farmers can use as solutions to GHG emissions, and slurry as bi-product help to boost the soil health and crop yields.
Prepare for comming Season September - December
We continue preparing and organizing land for upcoming season. The organization currently practice coffee growing on 5 acres, out of which 3 will be an expansion for coffee growing, 2 to grow maize. The project land is working as a model to encourage the youth to participate and learn how coffee grown; support them create jobs, generate income and improve their family standards.
Walking Tractor
In the past project report, we showed that there is need for a min-farming tractor. This appeal is still on, calling for help from anyone or organization or corporate to enable us ease cultivation during this coming season.
We will be grateful.
