主なハイライト

ウガンダで栽培される穀物には、トウモロコシ、ミレット、ソルガム、米、小麦が含まれています。これらは小規模農家の収入増加および国家経済において重要な役割を果たしています。穀物に対する需要の高まりは東アフリカへの地域輸出を増加させており、穀物生産を支援する好ましい政府政策も市場の成長を促す要因です。
2022年に、ウガンダ政府は2021年に導入された穀物や他の農産物の輸出禁止を延長しました。これは、近隣諸国への食料輸出を防ぐために高い税金を課し、食料安全保障を確保し、地元の家禽や家畜の生産を増やすためです。禁止のもう一つの理由は、ロシアのウクライナ戦争の影響で穀物価格が急騰したことです。ウガンダは十分な供給と生産性を確保するために、地元生産の促進に注力しています。
ウガンダの農業セクターには、生産、投入供給、付加価値加工、基準遵守、輸出、及び収穫後の処理を含む重要な投資機会があります。これらは今後数年で市場の成長を助けるでしょう。

国際貿易局によると、2021年から2022年の間に、農業はGDPの約24.1％と輸出収益の33％を占めました。近年、トウモロコシの東アフリカ諸国への輸出が増加しています。東アフリカ諸国間の自由貿易環境の自由化はトウモロコシの商人に利益をもたらし、輸出の増加につながっています。

The Uganda Grains Market size is estimated at USD 4.45 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 5.43 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 4.10% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Key Highlights

• Grains grown in Uganda include maize, millet, sorghum, rice, and wheat. They play a prominent role in increasing the income of smallholder farmers and the national economy. The growing demand for grains increased regional exports to East Africa, and favorable government policies supporting grain production are some factors driving the market growth.
• In 2022, the government of Uganda extended the ban imposed in 2021 on the export of grains and other farms' produce, with the latter imposing high taxes to prevent food exports to neighboring countries to ensure food security and increase local poultry and livestock production. Another reason for banning is grain prices soared, partly because of Russia's war on Ukraine. Uganda has focused on boosting local production to ensure enough supplies and productivity.
• There are significant investment opportunities in Uganda's agriculture sector, including production, input supply, value-added processing, standards compliance and export, and post-harvest handling. These will help the market grow in the coming years.

Uganda Grains Market Trends

Increase in Regional Maize Exports is Driving the Market

Maize is one of the staple crops grown in Uganda, providing over 45.0% of the country's daily calorie consumption., To meet the domestic demand, most farmers grow maize on their farmland. According to the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization, Uganda's fertile agricultural land has the potential to feed 200 million people. Eighty PTO cent of Uganda's land is arable, but only 35% is cultivated.

According to the International Trade Administration, in 2021-2022, agriculture accounted for about 24.1% of GDP and 33% of export earnings. In recent years, there has been an increase in exports of maize to East African countries. The liberalized free trade environment between East African countries benefits the maize traders, leading to a rise in exports.

In March 2021, restrictions were imposed on maize importation by Kenya due to the low-quality standards of maize produced by Uganda, but the ban was lifted in May 2021. After the ban, the export quality and quantity improved. Only grain exports tested and certified by accredited labs in Uganda to meet acceptable safety levels are permitted into Kenya, which is expected to stimulate market growth during the forecast period. The country's Also, within the country, maize production has increased significantly.

Favorable Government Policies are Driving the Market

Grain trade and agro-processing play a crucial role in the national economy, but the sector is currently facing challenges such as inadequate supply due to lower production, the volatility of agriculture commodity prices, and inadequate storage facilities. The cereals production has declined in the year 2020 compared to the previous year 2019 due to various above-mentioned problems in addition to the pandemic impact on the agricultural sector in terms of the lack of labor and transportation facilities in the country. According to U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), among the cereals, corn production has increased with 2,800 metric ton in 2022 over the last five years followed by rice and wheat in the country.

In order to increase agricultural production and address post-harvest challenges, The Ugandan Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Cooperative introduced "The National Grain Trade Policy" in 2016, which was in line with Uganda's Vision 2040 and the National Development Plan II to improve the food security, income generation, and advancement of industrialization.

The Indian government and Uganda's State Minister for Foreign Affairs have committed to sharing knowledge, technology, and experience in agriculture to strengthen Uganda's agricultural sector, particularly in the areas of grains and dairy products, and to contribute significantly to Uganda's development. They also stated that the bilateral relationship between India and Uganda will continue to grow more intense and engaging and that it will have a positive effect in a variety of areas.

To address the lack of transportation facilities that the grain commodity sector is facing, the government launched interventions in 2019. The Uganda Railway Corp. has approved the upgrading of its 1266 kilometer gauge rail line for USD 267 million. In addition, in 2022, The African Development Bank provided USD 301 million to Uganda to upgrade the colonial-era meter-gauge rail linking to the Kenyan border to help cut transport costs which Uganda heavily relies on expensive road transport for its exports and imports mainly through Kenya.
