TESIFA Sustainable Farm in western Uganda transforms agriculture. We use regenerative methods to build healthy soil, enhance climate resilience, and ensure sustainable food production for our community.
Description
TESIFA Sustainable Farm is an agro-ecological enterprise in western Uganda that uniquely integrates regenerative farming with a strategic B2B model. It supplies fresh poultry and eggs to local institutions and cross-border exporters, capitalizing on its proximity to tourist destinations and the DRC market. To scale its impact, TESIFA is raising funds to automate its poultry operation to 100,000 layers, enhance solar energy, and establish a cold storage and processing facility.
