Implications of the ban on rice cultivation in Uganda’s wetlands for breeding and seed systems programing por Twine, Edgar E.

“…Three rice seed product market segments currently exist for Uganda: DELS-U1 in the upland ecology and TMeLS-R and TMeLF-R2 in the rainfed lowland ecology. In 2021, the Ugandan government prohibited the cultivation of rice and all other crops in wetlands in a bid to protect wetlands from degradation, while still envisioning rice self-sufficiency by 2030. …”
