Tushabomwe says the government intends to multiply the camels in the next one and half years for milk production since its milk is highly nutritious, lactose-free and has a ready market within East Africa and the Arab Countries.
Patrick Amacha Dagu, the Project Officer at RICE West Nile, explained that after assessing the needs of Lobule, they quickly initiated a mini-irrigation scheme to support the women. "The women were ready to undertake vegetable farming during the dry season, so we focused on providing water and distributing it to the fields. This allowed them to grow vegetables in high demand in both Lobule and Koboko town," Dagu said.
