As part of his regional wealth creation assessment tour in Teso sub-region, President Yoweri Museveni visited the home of Vice President Jessica Alupo in Katakwi District, where he reiterated the urgent need to address land fragmentation to spur development.<\/p>\n

The President, who toured Alupo\u2019s model farm featuring poultry, piggery, fish farming, banana cultivation, and dairy farming, commended her for setting an example in wealth creation. He used the occasion to share insights into sustainable land management and how it can foster socio-economic transformation.<\/p>\n

\u201cLand fragmentation remains a major obstacle to development. When families divide land upon inheritance, they often destroy the very foundation of their wealth,\u201d Museveni said. He advocated for alternative approaches to resource management, citing lessons from European systems and his experiences with development in Kabale District.<\/p>\n

Museveni illustrated his point with an analogy:
\n\u201cI told the people in Kabale, \u2018I have one water pot but five homes. Should I break the pot to share it?\u2019 They wisely suggested bringing water and distributing it. That\u2019s the principle we must adopt\u2014sharing resources without destroying them.\u201d<\/p>\n

A Call for Change<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The President highlighted the importance of adopting the four-acre model for land use, particularly for households with smaller holdings. This approach focuses on intensive and diversified farming to maximize output and income.<\/p>\n

Museveni expressed optimism about changing attitudes toward land use, saying, \u201cThe problem of Africa is sleep\u2014it\u2019s amazing how people can remain asleep. But I am glad to see that people are waking up slowly.\u201d<\/p>\n

He shared a personal anecdote about his mother\u2019s transformation through Christianity as an example of how cultural shifts can lead to socio-economic progress.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf my mother, a traditional woman, could learn to boil milk and knit from the church, then change is possible for everyone,\u201d Museveni remarked.<\/p>\n

Vice President Alupo\u2019s Visionary Approach<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Vice President Alupo, inspired by Museveni\u2019s vision, explained how her family has implemented strategies to prevent land fragmentation. She detailed how income from their farm is pooled into a joint account to sustain their agricultural ventures.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe land acquired by our father was shared among nine children and our mother. By managing it collectively, we\u2019ve avoided the pitfalls of fragmentation,\u201d Alupo said.<\/p>\n

She highlighted the success of their farm\u2019s diverse enterprises and underscored their alignment with Museveni\u2019s four-acre model.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are embracing comprehensive agricultural practices to fight poverty and improve livelihoods in the region,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

A Path Forward for Teso<\/strong><\/h3>\n

President Museveni concluded his address by urging local leaders to champion sustainable practices and work collaboratively to implement his vision for land use and wealth creation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cI am happy to see progress in Teso, and I urge all leaders to prioritize this fight against land fragmentation. Together, we can build a prosperous future,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Museveni\u2019s visit marks a significant step in the government\u2019s ongoing efforts to promote agricultural innovation and sustainable land management across Uganda.<\/p>\n
