The Ministry of Agriculture has launched the construction of a 2.8 billion shillings Zonal Animal disease control centre in Nwoya District.

The multibillion facility will be constructed in Got Apwoyo Government Farm under the Agricultural Value Chain Development Project funded by the African Development Bank-ADB.

Speaking to stakeholders and community members of Got Apwoyo at the site handover, the State Minister for Agriculture Lt. Col (Rtd) Bright Rwamirama says the facility, the first of its kind in the region will cover the entire Northern Uganda including the West Nile region.

Rwamirama notes that animal diseases have been a major constraint in livestock production and trade and limit the country’s ability to access major export markets.
