Technology in agriculture refers to the use of advanced tools and techniques to improve efficiency, productivity, and sustainability in farming practices. It helps farmers increase crop yields through precision farming, crop monitoring, & making informed decisions. #Agrishow25

"Science that stays in Academic Journals and University archives that are not accessible and usable to solve society's problems is not the type we want in Uganda. In Uganda, we want science that solves our national development challenges, such as Productivity", Dr Fred Muhumuza

Prof Yusuf Byaruhanga of the Department of Food Technology of Makerere University delivering a paper on Harnessing Open Science for Higher Productivity and competitiveness in Uganda's Agricultural value chains

" There are lots of expired patents, & the information is freely available that we can take advantage of to improve productivity & practice. They are just 20 years old, but the application is still viable. E.g., look at a tractor, what has it changed in 20 years?" Prof Byaruhanga

''I am here because we, as the private sector we are looking at how Open Science, plus our scientists here, can help us improve productivity and solve industry challenges," Dr. Adelo Omara-founder of Delight Uganda Ltd

"NARO is already practising open science, where a lot of information materials and data sets are freely available at the NARO Information Hub that is open to the researchers, private sector and the public", Director of Research, MUZARDI-NARO.
