Entrepreneurship in Agribusiness - IMPACT Stories

In the seventh story of our Impact series we explore the work of Sylivia Natundula and how Goshen Maggot Farm is producing Black Soldier Fly as a cost effective, safe and nutritious animal feed in Northern Uganda.

The eighth story in our impact series features Victor Ssenabulya from the Uganda Christian University in Mukono, Uganda. Victor is further growing his rabbit business, focusing on the production of soil improvers, fertilizers and pesticides based upon rabbit droppings and urine. There's an old saying in Yorkshire "where there's muck, there's brass" and Victor is ably demonstrating that animal waste can indeed be turned into a profitable business.

Dortea Nakandjibi is the focus of our ninth, and penultimate, Impact story from Cohort 5 (2022/23) of the Entrepreneurship in Agribusiness course. Dortea is a student at the University of Namibia and aspires to launch the first digital market app in the country, linking small holder farmers directly with markets in the countries capital.

Our final story in our series highlighting the impact of young African agri-food entrepreneurs who have completed our 'Entrepreneurship in Agribusiness' course is about 'Hamse Abdirahman'. Hamse is studying veterinary sciences in the remote community of Sheikh in Somaliland, where he is establishing a sheep fattening business with the support of his university which he then aims to continue after graduation.
