In partnership with the National Agricultural Advisory Services (NAADS) programme, KDFA implemented the Farmer Institutional Development (FID) project in three sub-counties of Kabarole District.
What We Did
The project focused on strengthening farmer institutions to enable them to participate effectively in agricultural programmes and markets. KDFA trained farmer groups in leadership, governance, financial management, and organisational development.
Key Results and Impact
Strengthened farmer group governance and accountability
Improved collective action and coordination among farmers
Increased farmer participation in district and national agricultural initiatives
Enhanced sustainability of farmer organisations beyond project funding
Donor Value
Institutional strengthening that enabled farmers to become active economic actors, not passive beneficiaries.
