The United Nation’s Food and Agriculture Organization says climate-related disasters have put Uganda’s agricultural industry in jeopardy.
The African nation's local food security is under a growing threat especially after many farmers lost their produce and livestock in recent floods.
In Uganda, the impact of climate change includes heavy rains, flooding, landslides, drought, outbreaks of disease and epidemics, like malaria and cholera, as well as lightning strikes.
These phenomena are likely to have significant implications for Uganda's agriculture industry, food security, as well as soil and water resources.
