It is estimated that by 2030 nearly 50% of the world's population may live in urban areas. Consequently, many millions of acres of productive farmland are expected to be lost to housing and industrial usage. In Uganda, the lack of appropriate farmland, low incomes, unemployment, and natural disasters have resulted in very poor food security. This makes the country’s chances of halving poverty and hunger by 2030 very slim. Uganda and other African countries need to increase agricultural productivity in a sustainable manner through innovative approaches, particularly in dense urban areas.

On top of this, Kampala is facing a major issue with urban waste management, where nearly 28,000 tons of waste are delivered to city landfills each month. However, according to the Kampala Capital City Authority, this represents only 40% of the waste generated in the city. The rest ends up in unauthorized sites. Often on city streets and in dense urban areas, causing significant environmental and human health problems.

So in 2014, a group of students at the Makerere University chapter of IDEAS For Uganda, led by Mr. Paul Matovu, developed an innovative approach to urban micro-gardening and integrated waste management in Kampala, a social enterprise called “Vertical Micro-Gardening” (VMG), the first of its kind in Uganda.

How three smallholder farmers in Tanzania and Kenya escaped poverty, hunger and diminishing yields through learning organic farming practises.

A documentary made for IFOAM by Maweni Farm in collaboration with the national organic agriculture movements in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Burundi and Rwanda.

Climate change is increasingly posing a challenge to agriculture development in Africa. The destruction caused by floods and the devastation by droughts across the continent demonstrate the threat posed by the unpredictable weather patterns.
This year, Zimbabwe is expecting its biggest harvest of maize in 20 years, a sign that the country could be ending its cycle of food deficits due to successive droughts and a troubled land reform program undertaken in the early 2000's.
Official data shows the country will harvest about 2.7 million metric tons of the staple grain. This would be almost 200 percent higher than last year.
Maize is a staple crop across much of eastern and southern Africa - and it's not just climate change that's causing problems, the Fall Army Worm is too. It's actually the caterpillar of a moth, native to the US. But it hasn't stayed there - the pest is spreading around the world, ruining harvests, like in southern Africa in 2017. But one project in Ghana is helping farmers to fight back against the hungry caterpillars with a smartphone app.
The Global Hunger Index says the western African country of Cameroon experiences moderate levels of hunger - but here conflict is the main reason for food insecurity. Farming has been greatly disrupted in the country’s Far North region where the army is fighting against a Boko Haram insurgency and the West where English speaking separatists are trying to create a breakaway state.
