  • Empowering Ugandan Farmers with Dutch Seeds!
    Nov 19 2025

    House of Seeds guarantees quality “even when the farmer has had issues with the seeds, with the germination or what,” and that their agronomical support is “on ground” to help farmers realize growth.

    This level of commitment, especially in a challenging market, is both impressive and surprising. Kangazi Comfort shares that the reality of the workforce today is that it’s not enough for employees to just show up; they must actually deliver results, or the business won’t grow.

  • Triple impact with $100 farmer micro-loans.
    Oct 31 2025
    • Unlike most lenders who only give loans to big agricultural factories or traders, Emata gives micro-loans directly to individual farmers, sometimes as small as 50,000 shillings (about $13 USD).

      Bram van den Bosch & Lilian Nassanga Musoke share the dramatic impact of these loans with some farmers doubling or even tripling their income within two years, going from $100–$200/month to much more, simply because they finally had access to capital.
