Review of bean production in Uganda outside the highland and fertile crescent zones

Beans are grown and consumed in all of the 34 districts of Uganda. Areas outside the highland and fertile crescent zones account for over 60 percent of the country's production. Increased production over the past 10 years has been through area expansion rather than increased yield. Production constr...

description Beans are grown and consumed in all of the 34 districts of Uganda. Areas outside the highland and fertile crescent zones account for over 60 percent of the country's production. Increased production over the past 10 years has been through area expansion rather than increased yield. Production constraints include diseases and pests, poor yielding varieties, land limitations, soil fertility, water stress, and poor marketing system. Beans are consumed both in the fresh and dry states as a sauce accompanying the staple food. The most common bean dish is cooked in a mixture with either bananas or cassava. In the central and eastern regions, beans are consumed in a mashed form with sweet potatoes, while in the northern region they are mixed as a sauce with other grains such as simsim and groundnuts.

(AS) El frijol se cultiva y consume en los 34 distritos de Uganda. Las areas fuera de las regiones montanosas y de la creciente fertil contribuyen con mas del 60 por ciento de la produccion del pais. Los incrementos de la produccion durante los ultimos 10 anos se han debido mas a la expansion de las areas que al aumento de los rendimientos. Los limitantes de la produccion incluyen las enfermedades y las plagas, las var. de bajo rendimiento, las limitaciones de tierras, la fertilidad del suelo, el estres hidrico y elsistema deficiente de mercadeo. El frijol se consume fresco y seco como salsa acompanante del alimento basico. El plato mas comun con base en frijol se prepara en una mezcla con banano y con yuca. En las regiones central y oriental, el frijol se consume en forma de pure con batata dulce, mientras que en la region del norte, se mezcla como salsa con otras semillas como el simsim y el mani.
