Description
Our farm in Uganda is an expansive 5,000-acre agricultural project located in the Kapelebyong district, strategically positioned near the Karamoja region. Our mission is to harness the potential of this fertile land to create a sustainable and diverse farming enterprise.
At the core of our operations are three main ventures:
Cattle Ranching: We are establishing a large-scale cattle farm, focusing on healthy and sustainable livestock rearing.
Aquaculture: Our plans include a modern fish farm designed to produce high-quality fish for local and regional markets.
Horticulture: We are also developing fruit farms, cultivating species that thrive in the local climate to supply fresh produce.
We believe our story of growth, sustainability, and community impact is one worth telling. To help us capture this journey, we invite a creative and adventurous videographer to come and join our team on-site. This is a unique opportunity to document the creation of a landmark agricultural project in the heart of Uganda.
