The study commenced on 22 November 2016. This document presents the Draft Final Report for the study. This document incorporates survey (questionnaires, field investigations, consultations and research summaries) outcomes, proposals and recommendations. The project entailed an evaluation of reports deemed to contain research from institutions in Uganda who are conducting roads research, as well as some international consultants who have done research for Ugandan institutions. Together with the reports, questionnaires were distributed to stakeholders to provide their perceptions of the state of roads research in Uganda. Selected field visits were conducted to evaluate sites where experiments have been conducted before. Finally, an Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) has been developed to contain the roads research information and be used in future as a repository for such research and a management support system to assist in the planning and coordination of new roads research in Uganda. Key words Baseline survey, road sector research, electronic document management system RESEARCH FOR COMMUNITY ACCESS PARTNERSHIP (ReCAP) Safe and sustainable transport for rural communities ReCAP is a research programme, funded by UK Aid, with the aim of promoting safe and sustainable transport for rural communities in Africa and Asia. ReCAP comprises the Africa Community Access Partnership (AfCAP) and the Asia Community Access Partnership (AsCAP). These partnerships support knowledge sharing between participating countries in order to enhance the uptake of low cost, proven solutions for rural access that maximise the use of local resources. The ReCAP programme is managed by Cardno Emerging Markets (UK) Ltd.

Automated Livestock Tracking and Management System: Makerere University (CEDAT), School of Engineering, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering By J. Nayebare1, A. Niyonzima2, P. Bogere3 Successful farming has always required intense manual labour and acute management skills. Technological advancements of agricultural revolutions reduced the quantity of manual labour required but human direction is still necessary. A main component of these new strategies is livestock monitoring information. Animal tracking provides valuable information including recent location, movement and feeding patterns, and land usage. The collection and storage of this information as well as actions based upon the information are becoming more automated. In this research project, a system prototype for tracking and recording livestock was developed. The prototype requires attaching an animal with an RFID tag assigned a unique ID. Different read locations (e.g. barn, dip, field, and gate) assigned RFID readers that read from the RFID tag. A tag read by a reader determines the tag’s location and, therefore, that of the animal. A programmed microcontroller, with connected readers, processes data from the RFID tag. A Wi-Fi connected microcontroller forwards the data of a tag, location and timestamp to a mobile application and web application in real-time, thereby availing data from all the read stations. 1st International Scientific Conference on Bio-waste recycling in Uganda – 2016 Ndejje University 2.
