Recognizing coffee as one of the country’s most valuable export commodities, the government has implemented a series of initiatives aimed at boosting production from the current 6 million 60kg bags to 20 million bags by 2030.

Efforts include the promotion of high-yielding & disease-resistant coffee where National Coffee Research Institute Uganda (NaCORI) has played a pivotal role in the expansion of coffee cultivation into non-traditional growing areas, & provision of training and resources to farmers to improve agronomic practices

WHY YOU SHOULD PLANT COFFEE *Is a perennial crop. Remains productive up to 40years. *Has a consistent demand globally. *🍒Fetches higher farm gate profits than most crops. *🍒Can be intercropped with other crops -food crops- to maximize land use+economic returns. #TheGoldenBean

The first cohort of beneficiaries under the UCDA & EU in Uganda Coffee/Cocoa Value Chains Dev't Project-COCODEV is getting hands-on training at National Coffee Research Institute Uganda (NaCORI), Mukono. This project will support commercial farmers to establish coffee & cocoa farms of 10-50 acres to boost production.

This is how a mature KR10 looks like. It's high yielding, has bigger beans & is ever green just like KR3. I'll share more about KR8&9 soon. KR8-10 are still limited as nursery operators multiply them. 📸 taken National Coffee Research Institute Uganda (NaCORI) on Monday. Good job being done by our scientists. @Coff

KR8: This is how it looks at maturity. It's known for uniform ripening in addition to other features of CWD-r varieties (high yielding, resistant to CWD, big bean size, good cup quality etc). Hectare can yield 3,100kgs of FAQ per year. 📸 taken National Coffee Research Institute Uganda (NaCORI). Uganda Coffee Development Authority
