Uganda Harvest Update
Posted May 13, 2025 in From the Field
Uganda’s 2025 coffee season is showing a mixed picture, with a strong Arabica recovery and some challenges in Robusta, according to the latest update from Ugacof Managing Director Max Veglio. Arabica volumes for the February/March harvest were up 20-30% from last year due to promising flowering; however, Robusta yields have been impacted by prolonged dryness, leading to a 10% expected reduction in the May/July crop. Farmers across both sectors remain motivated, supported by rising prices and growing investment in seedlings, irrigation and new plantings.
