About

Coffee Farming

Uganda is one of the world’s leading coffee producers and Africa’s top exporter coffee, contributing an average of 15% of the country’s total export revenue over the last decade. The country ranks fourth globally in Robusta production, after Vietnam, Brazil, and Indonesia. Uganda is also home to high-quality Arabica coffee, grown in the highland areas of Mount Elgon, the Rwenzori Mountains, and the West Nile region.
