Fellow Baluuka with irrigation capacity- congratulations and I personally look fwd to learning from you all.

We haven’t had our system completed yet but soon it will be good to go, I know. And I’m already asking myself a number of questions:

1. How do I avoid getting the irrigation system but use it to do ‘business as usual’ stuff?
2. How do I use this system to upgrade my farming from where we are now as Asaba farm system to another and higher - profitable level?
3. Yes - we are keen and passionate farmers - and we may be tempted to go it alone - esp. now that we have irrigation capacity - after all, ‘kange kakiila kaiffe..’; but I take step back and ask - won’t I benefit more if I use my irrigation capacity as part of a ‘collective’?

I don’t want to pretend I have all the answers - but together, we may have the answers … at-least better answers than mine.

Is any of us thinking of:

1. Forming an association in Luuka of climate smart farmers (or any other naming we may think of)
2. Do market research and identify a crop/s we can grow
3. But deliberately take a differential approach - the equaliser in farming is ‘good weather’ and when it’s abundant, we all grow crops we want but forget that we drive up supply + push prices down; the differentiator is the ability to grow crops to maturity, during ‘offseason’ as demand is high - supply is low - and price high
4. Now can’t we form an association- agree of crops and cycles .. and we focus on doing our business offseason
5. X50 farmers … and x1 acre each .. could bring us tonnes of crop & money
6. We can have a 10 year vision and consider getting into a bulking arrangement with our own warehouses in Luuka etc - marketing nationally then regionally etc etc

Who wants to ideate on this? It’s got to be organic discourse for an organic but sure journey… ups and downs are a given, I want to say upfront- but if we commit, we shall ultimately win

I can host x5 volunteers at Asaba farm system in December for our inaugural meeting

I submit if there are takers
