She goes into detail about how the potential in agribusiness for every Ugandan to create a better future for themselves. Uganda has tremendous natural resources: agriculture, forestry, and fish farming.Also, a wealth of human resources-smart, willing, hard-working men, women, and young people whose capacity is underdeveloped and whose potential contributions to Uganda's agribusiness are untapped.
