Uganda Exchange Group

The objective of the Uganda Exchange Group is to provide a forum for practitioners, researchers, advisory services professionals, farmers and other stakeholders in Uganda to discuss different issues in agriculture considered relevant for this country. It was established in early 2010 to test this interactive platform with rural users and to collect their recommendations in order to make TECA more user-friendly and relevant to their needs. A short video shows testimonies of members about their experience with this Exchange Group.

The Group offers participants the opportunity to ask and answer questions, and to explore areas of common interest that potentially serve as the basis for establishing partnerships.

Discussion topics range from maize production technologies to cooperation between stakeholders supporting small farmers in Uganda and much more.

Current members include advisory services professionals, researchers, agents from development organizations, officers from the national agricultural research organization (NARO), private service providers, students and others.
