Since June 2003, NAADS in partnership
with IITA’s Foodnet is implementing
a pilot, project for the Agricultural Market
Information System (AMIS) in the six trail-blazing
districts of Arua, Kabale, Kibaale, Mukono,
Soroti and Tororo. The project aims to provide
Local Market Information Services to meet
the information needs of grass-root agricultural
actors, especially local
The NAADS AMIS concept is based on the assumption that the availability of reliable market information is a means of assisting farmers to (a) reduce the risks associated with marketing; (b) empower their ability to bargain for fairer prices and (c) to decide where to sell their produce. In addition to the provision of market information, farmers’ capacity to utilize such information is developed through face-to-face training or radio.
