UGANDA SOIL

It is bordered on the southeast by Lake Victoria, on the east by Kenya, on the north by Sudan, on the west by the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and on the southwest by Rwanda and Tanzania. Even though Uganda has no outlet to the sea, it has important lakes like Lake Victoria, Lake Albert, Lake Kyoga, and Lake Edward. The main cities are in the south of the country, including the capital of Kampala and the city of Entebbe. Uganda is roughly half the size of Spain, and one-third of it is either arable land or planted with permanent crops.

CLIMATE AND SEASONS

That's why Uganda is such an ideal place for agricultural activities

Overall Uganda’s climate is considered tropical and generally rainy, with two dry seasons between December and February and between June and August, although it varies among the different regions of the country. The high temperatures and the regular rainfall allow for almost any type of cultivation on a land that is highly fertile.

Given the relative constancy of the country’s climate, Uganda’s agricultural products can be grown at any time of the year.

RESOURCES

Uganda offers a wide range of natural resources.

Uganda possesses considerable natural resources, including fertile soils, regular rainfall, and large reserves of copper and cobalt. Agriculture is still the most important sector of the economy, employing over 80% of the workforce, and the main source of foreign exchange for the country comes from the export of coffee.
