Empowering You to Grow Your Family's Food

Do you worry about the quality and safety of some of the foods at your family's dinner table, or are you just a fresh food enthusiast? Whether you have access to family/ancestral land or not, our family-friendly solutions provide you the tools and resources to grow exactly the food you need for your family, exactly the way you want it grown. From fresh vegetables, fruits and nuts to meats, poultry, honey and fishes, our Family program gives you access to land, agricultural inputs and professional expertise you need to deliver freshness and health to your meals.

The Grow Your Family's Food program helps families produce their own food either on our facilities or on their own family/ancestral land for Uganda-based families.

How we Help you Grow your Family's Foods

This program has two tracks:

■  Flexible farmland leases:  For families based outside Uganda, or for Uganda-based families that have no access to unencumbered family land, we provide flexible farmland leases that you need to get you started.

■  Agricultural inputs:   From the right seeds/breeds and livestock feeds to machines, fertilizers and pesticides, we provide you the inputs you need to help you succeed.

■  Labor and professional management:   Whether your family members have the time or urge to help out, you don't need to be an agricultural professional or have time to farm in order to grow your own foods. We provide customized professional advisory and all the manpower you need to execute project activities to your satisfaction, so that you can concentrate on nurturing your family while we take care of the hard work for you.

■  Timely Reporting:   Whether you're based in Uganda or elsewhere, and whether you're a busy professional or have time to spare to visit the farm or not, we provide timely, relevant and accurate information to help you stay up-to-date on your agribusiness investment activities. Our image, video & one-on-one interactions with account representatives ensure that you have the information you need to make critical business decisions.

Solution Advantages

■  Fully Managed. on Your Behalf: You can continue to spend time with your family, while our professionals take care of all your production project on your behalf. We ensure regular reporting and integration of your desires and values at every step.

■  Low Capital Requirements:  For families with no access to family land, our modular, flexible farmland leases eliminate the need for you to purchase land outright or even secure long term-leases, thereby reducing risk and ensuring that your savings are applied directly to producing food rather than offsetting unnecessary costs.

■  High Scalability:  Our solutions integrate intuitively around your unique food production needs, with the ability to meet the requirements of a gardening and fresh food enthusiast or a family that owns large parcels of land suitable for commercial activities.

■  Local expertise, global reach: Although our field operations are implemented exclusively in Uganda's stable agricultural production environment, all our solutions are available to families based anywhere in the world.

Family Land Management and Development Services

Are you a busy professional with elderly parents or extended family living on family farmland outside Uganda's urban areas? We understand that these senior citizens may no longer be able to manage all existing family farm operations or even grow sufficient food for their own consumption. With our Family program, you are able to access the manpower, professional expertise and agricultural inputs you need to produce food for you, your parents or extended family.

With our Family Land Management service, you can use your ancestral/family land to:

■  Produce food for you, your parents or other extended family

■  Produce food for sale or carry out other non-food activities like commercial forestry

■  Establish and manage a professionally-run farming operation or ranch
