“Uganda’s main food crops have been plantains, cassava, sweet potatoes, millet, sorghum, corn, beans, and groundnuts. Major cash crops have been coffee, cotton, tea, cocoa, vanilla and tobacco, although in the 1980s many farmers sold food crops to meet short-term expenses.” Smart Agriculture Universe is here to support the farmers in market sourcing and build their capacity. Agriculture, the 21st Century “Gold Mine” is shifting very quick towards commercial farming. Lets join hands and turn around farming in Africa together as partners!.

Communication to the farmers.
“We sell the produce to middle men who give us little money and take our produce and sell to earn more from it. It’s worse if the market is flooded.
Prices drop and the farmers earn nothing. If only farmers would form groups whereby they can acquire land as a group and do farming as a team, then marketing produce would be made easier
Here ideas of value addition would be sourced for to ensure that a farmer gains from what she does and also starts taking it as employment

“We farm workers are closest to food production. We were the first to recognize the serious health hazards of agriculture pesticides to both consumers and ourselves”
Cesar Chavez
Industrial agriculture characteristically proceeds by single solutions to single problems: If you want the most money from your land this year, grow the crops for which the market price is highest.
