With stakes in agriculture, manufacturing, food processing, hospitality and tourism, insurance and aviation among others, the Madhvani Group continues to blaze a trail set by its visionary founding father over eight decades ago. I consider it a great privilege to finally view the Madhvani Group from the inside, and share some of the amazing things that go on here. When I was much younger, I thought I would get rewarded if I quietly worked hard. It took me a while to learn that while it is great to be quietly efficient, sometimes it is also important to be seen to be doing the work. In that regard, I feel that we at Madhvani do not talk about ourselves enough. Take for instance, this photo. I am sitting on a staircase in one of the Madhvani Group’s hidden gems: Kakira Guesthouse. Everyone who has used the Jinja-Malaba Proprietors highway has driven past Madhvani Group Ltd. the Kakira estate, and has Plot 25 Main Street, seen nothing but sugarcane. P. O.

You could just as addressed to: easily have enjoyed a rejuvenating break and a hot meal at the Kakira The Editor, Group Magazine Guesthouse. If you’d like to expand your horizons, turn off into the P. O. Box 121 Jinja, Uganda estate one day. Believe me, it will be an unforgettable experience.

We also encourage you to read the special feature Jinja explaining the importance of zoning in the sugar industry, and give us Madhvani Group Ltd. your valuable feedback. Plot 25, Main Street, P. O.

  • An Investigation of the Effects of Barley Cultivation On
    © COPYRIGHT by Cleo Roberts 2013 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED BREWING SUCCESS: AN INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF BARLEY CULTIVATION ON SMALL HOLDER FARMERS IN EASTERN UGANDA BY Cleo Roberts ABSTRACT As Nile Breweries and Uganda Breweries have begun purchasing barley from Ugandan farmers, they have insisted that their sales support economic development in the country. While these breweries' competition for raw materials has the potential to provide smallholder barley farmers with increased income and access to credit, it may also encourage alcohol consumption and exacerbate environmental degradation. This paper explores whether and in what ways barley farmers in Kapchorwa, Bukwa, and Kween Districts, in eastern Uganda, benefit from selling their produce to Nile Breweries and Uganda Breweries. It pays particular attention to the breweries' intended effects on respondents' incomes, expenditures, and access to credit, as well as the potential unintended consequences of barley production on respondents' alcohol consumption and environmental stewardship. The author relies both on narratives and on econometric analysis to draw conclusions about the effect of breweries' demand for raw materials on domestic small-holders. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Infinite thanks to Peter Redvers-Lee and Kenneth Muhinda, without whose invaluable assistance and guidance this study could not have taken place; to Gavin Van Wijk, who provided access to essential contacts and information; to George Mbogo and Joseph Kalule who facilitated travel to and research in various regions

  • The Sugarcane Carbon Sequestration Potential As a Clean Development Mechanism the Case of Kakira Sugar Estates
    Joint proceedings of the 27th Soil Science Society of East Africa and the 6th African Soil Science Society The sugarcane carbon sequestration potential as a clean development mechanism the case of Kakira Sugar Estates J. Sekajugo [email protected] (+256-782-223004, 701-962739) Abstract Soils, and managed agricultural soils in particular, represent a potentially significant low cost sink for greenhouse gases (GHGs) with multiple potential co-benefits to farm productivity and profitability (Jonathan, Ryan and Jeffrey, 2010). The great majority of agronomists and soil scientists agree that most agricultural soils can store more carbon and even a modest increase in carbon stocks across the large land areas used for agriculture would represent a significant GHG mitigation. Sugarcane accompanied with good farming practices has the potential to sequester considerable amounts of carbon and so contribute to climate change mitigation. However, little has been done to provide relevant information concerning carbon sequestration in crop lands and sugarcane in particular. This research work focuses on finding out the ability of sugarcane to sequester carbon in the soil and involves analyzing four different sugarcane varieties among those grown by Kakira sugar works limited to assess their potential to sequester carbon. It is believed to provide the management of Kakira and other stakeholders the relevant information against which to base decisions for developing CDM projects to mitigate climate change through agriculture. Sugarcane grown in Kakira estates has the potential to sequester carbon between 589.11 to 591.12Tc/ha. Therefore, with proper agronomic practices, carbon sequestration in sugarcane is a potential CDM project. Key words: Carbon sequestration, sugarcane varieties, soil organic carbon, phytoliths, Bulk density.

Its main goals are to maximize the trade, investment and development opportunities of developing countries, to help them face challenges arising from globalization, and to help them integrate into the world economy on an equitable basis. UNCTAD’s membership comprises 192 States. Its secretariat is located in Geneva, Switzerland, and forms part of the United Nations Secretariat. ICC The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) is the world business organization. It is the only body that speaks with authority on behalf of enterprises from all sectors in every part of the world, grouping together thousands of members, companies and associations from 130 countries. ICC promotes an open international trade and investment system and the market economy in the context of sustainable growth and development. It makes rules that govern the conduct of business across borders. Within a year of the creation of the United Nations it was granted consultative status at the highest level (category A) with the United Nations Economic and Social Council. This is now known as General Category consulta- tive status. Note The term “country” as used in this study also refers, as appropriate, to territories or areas; the designa- tions employed and the presentation of the material do not imply the expression of any opinion whatso- ever on the part of the Secretariat of the United Nations concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area or of its authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries.
