AMC BAGC 2205 /252: AGRICULTURAL MARKETING AND CO-OPERATIVES

Ugandan economy prior to the eighties was focused on a farm agricultural production based on households, and supported by community-based cooperatives processing and marketing networks. When country generated into political instability in the eighties the solid economic base was affected by insecurity, loss of property and lack of production. The current government effort is to re-build a viable rural economic base, so as to increase household incomes. What is lacking is a vibrant, well-educated and motivated human resources to disseminate government objectives, through proper managed cooperatives. The course therefore, is designed to provide training in theoretical and practical field of cooperative and credit management. This will enable managers to have the capacity to access modern and up-to-date information so as to improve market efficiencies.
