Thank team @ESAFFUG for the good to support agroeclogical farming among farmers

As we get into the first season for 2026, timely planting always lingers in our minds. This week, together with @NNasarri, we are supporting Farmer Field Schools (FFS) in Serere district to establish crop evaluation plots on Participatory Plant Breeding with focus on PVS for groundnuts, cowpeas and Sorghum. #FarmersSeedLab #FundAgroecology

As we continue to honor women struggles, we call upon stakeholders, policymakers, and partners to invest intentionally in women-led agroecological initiatives and ensure that gender equality remains central to food systems transformation. #8M26 #PeasantAndPopularFeminism

@AnitahAmong during the closing ceremony noted that the question on Pastoralism cannot be complete without one talking about the role of women because they derive value in each and every product from the livestock @APWG

Health complications, such as diet-related cancers and other chronic conditions, are taking a toll on African populations, due to exposure to hazardous agrochemicals whose importation is enabled by weak regulatory systems. A recent article in @observerug highlights that, as a signatory to the 1991 Bamako Convention, Uganda should strengthen measures to restrict the importation of highly hazardous molecules banned elsewhere. 👉Read more: observer.ug/business/glyph… #FundAgroecology

This week is about the #African #Women #Pastoralist #Gathering, a platform for women to share their lives realities and experience s, co-create practical solutions and identify workable mechanism for their governance. All these will be consolidated into a #APWG #Charter2026 #WLRs

Established to facilitate free trade, the WTO has only intensified poverty and inequality worldwide. Its policies have undermined sovereign autonomy, particularly in the Global South. Read call to action: viacampesina.org/en/2026/03/glo… #EndWTO

As we are in the planting seasons let us avoid the usage of chemical fertilisers and hybrid seeds in our farms . Let us embrace #Agroecology by using locally available materials like organic made manure and indigenous seeds ,its the only way to to fight #ClimateChange

Uganda’s agricultural systems are under increasing strain from declining soil fertility, land degradation, and climate change driven by conventional farming practices. With support from DKA Austria and Horizont3000, we introduced the Enabling Transformative Agroecology Programme (ETAP), through multi-stakeholder consultation meetings with Mayuge and Kumi DLG officials, to strengthen the transition to agroecology by promoting local innovations that protect ecosystems and revitalize food sytems in Eastern Uganda. 👇Watch video @dkaaustria @H3000EastAfrica #ETAP2026 #FundAgroecology

@ESAFFUG @FAOUganda @FAOSDGs @NamazziNaymah @KPL_Women @ZuwenaKhatib @unwomenkenya @PeasantsLeague @KESSFFKenya @Crusade4DevAf Women farmers are the backbone of resilient agriculture. Their sustainable methods and local knowledge build stronger food systems. 🌱

Women small-scale farmers in Uganda are at the heart of climate adaptation, practicing intercropping and other climate-smart farming methods that protect crops from pests and erratic weather. They also preserve resilient indigenous seeds, and diversify income-generating activities such as crop production, trade, and animal rearing to better withstand climate shocks. #WomenFarmersAtTheCentre #IWD2026 #FeedTheFuture

When women's land rights are secured: • Families are able to eat nutritious and culturally appropriate food. • Households can invest in the land for the long term. • Sustainable farming practices are strengthened. Secure land rights for women mean more resilient and healthy communities #SecureLandRights4Women #IWD2026
