Page 6 - Rwagashani Tea Plantation
P. 6
Technological plan: Our dream is to install a solar driven sprinkler technology to irrigate the tea
plantation especially during the dry season months. This would increase and sustain tea
production throughout the year. The sprinkler irrigation would benefit other farm enterprises, such
as, watering the banana plantation and pasture gardens. Solar driven sprinkler irrigation would
also mitigate the challenges of climate change. Uganda is the third largest tea producer — we are
glad to contribute to this reputation and to the welfare of low income families in Rwagashani
village.
