Abstract

Primary funding support for this study was provided by the Department for International Development (DFID) to support the Uganda Agriculture Sector Expenditure Review as part of the DFID/World Bank Collaborative Programme of Rural Development and Sustainable Livelihoods. Funding for surveys and fieldwork was provided by the NAADS Secretariat. Additional funding support for data analysis and write-up was provided through the Strategic Analysis and Knowledge Support System, which is funded by the United States Agency for International Development, the European Union, the Canadian International Development Agency, and the World Bank. The authors wish to thank all the farmers who set aside part of their time to participate in the surveys and provided invaluable information for the analyses leading to this paper.
