dcterms.abstract | This second progress report, covering the period from October 2019 to March 2020, presents the first results of a one-year pilot project to introduce vegetable growing activities in Hoima, Uganda, as a means to strengthen farmers’ adaptive capacity to deal with climate change, diversify income sources and improve household nutrition. Pilot farmers in Hoima district, Kyabigambire sub-county, trained by a team from East West Seed-Knowledge Transfer Uganda, the Alliance of Bioversity international and CIAT and the National Agricultural Research Organisation (NARO) of Uganda, evaluated the performance of various varieties of five vegetable species, identified the strengths and weaknesses of the experimental process and made recommendations for further research. | en_US |
