| description | This report provides evidence of how government and private sector partners leverage the PigSmart extension platform, a revolutionary digital ecosystem tailored to meet the needs of small-scale pig farmers in Uganda. Designed as a comprehensive resource, PigSmart addresses the unique challenges faced by pig farmers, such as disease management, feed optimization, breeding, heat stress and manure management. The platform not only improves access to essential information but also fosters a collaborative network among farmers, extension workers, and stakeholders, thereby enhancing overall productivity and sustainability in the pig farming sector.
Through targeted training and resources, the PigSmart platform plays a vital role in building resilience within rural communities, empowering farmers to adopt innovative practices, and ultimately contributing to the nation’s economic growth. |
