We are sitting on a goldmine and most of us don't even know it.

Uganda has the rain. The soil. The land. The climate that the whole world envies. And yet, we are importing the food we should be growing ourselves.

Joel Ssenjala, Country Manager of Holland Greentech, a man who has spent over a decade in the trenches of Uganda's agricultural sector, shares what will make you angry, inspired, and ready to act.

🔥 In this conversation, we uncover;

- Why Uganda only produces 50% of the vegetables it consumes, despite having the most fertile soils in East Africa. The one statistic that should terrify every Ugandan is— the average farmer is 65 years old. Who takes over?

- How 8 million bags of coffee worth $2 billion are being produced by smallholder farmers with almost zero access to finance

- Why your bank will give you a mortgage before they give a farmer a greenhouse loan, and what that says about our priorities

- The hidden billion-dollar opportunities in horticulture, aquaculture, and agri-tech that young Ugandans are sleeping on

- Why Churchill predicted Uganda's greatness in 1946, and whether we've listened.

- How you can start in agriculture without a hoe, without land, and without millions — the value chain nobody talks about
