Uganda: Coffee Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

FAS/Nairobi forecasts a ten percent increase in Uganda’s coffee production in the marketing year (MY) 2018/2019 due to favorable weather and harvests from newly matured plantations. Coffee exports are also forecast to rebound to MY 2016/2017 record figures. Uganda Coffee Development Authority (UCDA) continues to implement a Government of Uganda (GOU) sponsored program that promotes coffee production, marketing and export, and in early in 2018, Uganda initiated an online auction for its specialty coffees in an effort to boost prices.
