Irrigation Development in Uganda_Constraints, Lessons Learned, and Future Perspectives
Irrigation Development in Uganda_Constraints, Lessons Learned, and Future Perspectives
Policy makers in sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries have identified irrigation as a key ingredient to boosting food security and income as well as a precursor for agricultural development. However, most SSA countries have hardly exploited their irrigation potential. The overarching aim of this paper is to critically examine factors constraining exploitation of irrigation potential in Uganda. Lessons learned from previous interventions and successes elsewhere from countries comparable to Uganda are drawn and future perspectives to guide effective irrigation planning and development are recommended.
