AgriQuest Uganda Details
AgriQuest is a research project which focuses on Strengthening Agribusiness Ethics, Quality Standards & ICT Usage in Uganda's Value Chains.Despite the benefits enshrined in embracing (i) Ethical behaviour &(ii) Quality standards with respect to accelerating transformation, competitiveness and sustainability of a vibrant food security program and agri-business, there is a considerable lack of attention to these two issues in agribusiness value chains in Uganda. This raises a question: How can we have a better business climate that fosters a permanent and positive gradual change in practices & attitudes in agribusiness towards ethical behavior and quality standards in food security and agri-business initiatives? The complex nature of this question can best be answered through multi-stakeholder engagements that involve various agribusiness players. Hence as an applied research project, AGRI-QUEST will utilize engagement processes that include capacity building of farmers/value chain players, wide consultations and stakeholder engagement to ensure buy-in, uptake of research outcomes and knowledge exchange for a better business climate.
