CIFOR-ICRAF COUNTRY PROFILE: Uganda

Export citation

Located on the Equator, Uganda has long been legendarily fertile. The fertility continues to this day with maize yields per hectare outstripping those of Kenya despite extremely low fertilizer use. Still, there is little room for complacency: 41% of Uganda’s land is degraded, largely by soil erosion.
