Developing technologies is important to us and so is their dissemination to end users.
Today our #scientists and #communications teams started a two day retooling exercise to analyse and bridge communication gaps that hinder the adoption of these technologies.
One such innovation that stood out is their Organic fertiliser made out of animal waste & other invasive plants. I thank @narouganda for supporting @MbararaUST on developing these highly promising knowledge products. Govt will support these innovations & facilitate their uptake!

Very pleased to learn that the @narouganda anti-tick vaccine now pending final field trials in our all agro-ecological zones is ready to be launched after having passed all the initial regulatory stages. This is great news to the farming community & the economy! 🙏🙏@narouganda
Uganda's anti-tick vaccine ready for Field Trials: Hon. @FrankTumwebazek, accompanied by Hon. @FredBwino visited the National Livestock Resources Research Institute (NaLIRRI) in Nakyesasa, Wakiso district.
During this visit, the honourable @FrankTumwebazek officially inaugurated the aerophonics fodder production facility and also planted a tree to commemorate this visit being his first time to the Insitute.
They toured the #pasture conservation area, aflasafe production facility, livestock feed mill, zero waste facility, and embroyo transfer laboratory, among others.
These facilities were constructed with funding from @GovUganda to strengthen agricultural research and development.
Today, we had the honour of hosting honourable @FrankTumwebazek and @FredBwino at the National Livestock Resources Research Insitute (NaLIRRI) in Nakyesasa.
They were received by the @NARO_DG along with members of top management.
With colleague Hon @FredBwino , spent the day at @narouganda Nakesesa livestock research centre, inspecting their vaccine research facilities,follage gardens, animal waste value addition tech, animal rapid diagnostic kit manufacturing among others.
Kudos to the scientists...
NARO and PIK fully represented at International Comference on Research on Food Security, Natural Resource Management and Rural Development in Czech Republic.Hosted by Czech University of Life Sciences,Prague. Much appreciation to @narouganda, the entire team and mgt @ZardiAbi
@NARO_DG: This project seeks to address challenges faced by smallholder farmers like adverse climate which can be addressed by Agroforestry. Once we address some of these challenges then we are assured of increased incomes.
Partners with @narouganda DG during the project launch of Robusta Coffee Agroforestry to Adapt and Mitigate Climate Change in Uganda, funded by @EUinUG.
