  • How much cotton will Uganda produce by 2005?
  • You and Chamberlin (2004, p. 48) concluded that Uganda could produce 56,000 tons by 2005. SCOPE (2005, p. 3) recommended that Uganda should increase its cotton production from 30,000 tons in 2003/04 to at least 130,000 tons by 2010.
  • Why are cotton yields so low in Uganda?
  • Even after the post-reform productivity gains, ¨D... cotton yields in Uganda are the lowest in the world. No other country where cotton is grown on over 100,000 hectares has yields as low as Uganda,¡¬ according to ICAC (2002). A key reason behind the low yields has been the shift in the crop¡®s regional distribution from more to less productive areas.
  • When did cotton become a cash crop in Uganda?
  • Introduced in the early 20th century, cotton quickly became Uganda¡®s foremost cash crop; yields reached 60,000 tons during the early 1930s and growers were able to sustain that level of production for four decades (valued at approximately USD $300 million per an-num in today¡®s terms).
  • What happened to the cotton sector in Uganda?
  • It de-scribes and reviews the cotton sector situation in Uganda. During the 1960s, Uganda was Sub-Saharan Africa¡¯s largest cotton producer. However, political in-stability and poor policy choices of the 1970s led the sector to its demise.
  • Where is cotton grown in Uganda?
  • Cotton expanded in the Eastern and Northern regions (Bibangambah 1996). Currently, these areas account for about 60 percent of cotton production while Cen-tral Uganda produces only four percent of the country¡®s total. It appears, therefore, that cotton is grown in places where other cash crops have limited potential. 596 561 1,313 823
  • How big is India's cotton industry compared to Uganda's?
  • This is a significant achievement given the size of the Indian cotton sector: roughly 100 times larger than that of Uganda. On the other hand, even if the 1930-70 production trends continued, Uganda¡®s cotton output would only exceeded 110,000 tons today.
