@uganda.development.forum: Dr. Edward Katende Visits Mubuku Irrigation Scheme, Kasese Learning From Those Who Are Doing Bigger Dr. Edward Katende, Executive Director of the Uganda Development Forum (UDF), visited the Mubuku Irrigation Scheme in Kasese District to see how UDF can bring PDM beneficiaries together to learn from big farmers. Mubuku is a living classroom. Farmers there are doing agriculture on a bigger scale - with irrigation, modern methods, organized groups, and real markets. Dr. Katende's mission was clear: 1. To Learn: How do Mubuku farmers produce all year round, even in dry season? 2. To Connect:How can PDM beneficiaries learn from them - farmer to farmer? 3. To Transform: How can Mubuku become a Practical Training Center (PTC) where PDM households come for practical, hands-on learning? > _"PDM beneficiaries don't need more theory. They need to see farmers who are doing it bigger. If Mubuku can do it, our PDM households can also do it."_ - Dr. Edward Katende UDF, together with the Ministry of Finance, wants to turn successful farms like Mubuku into PTCs- where a PDM beneficiary can come, see, touch, learn, and go back home to replicate. Because seeing is believing. Learning by doing is transforming. #UDF #PDM #Mubuku #Kasese #PTC @Edward Katende @statehouseug
