The pandemic has negatively impacted most of the value chains in Uganda if not all in way that COVID-19 came at a time when harvesting period of some crops was nearing mainly vegetables and given their perishable nature and low techniques of post harvest handling, farmers significantly made losses because accessing market during lockdown was nearly impossible, given that people were home not working even the present produce on market would completely fetch low prices due low purchasing power by consumers
In summary farmers have greatly suffered the effect of the pandemic mainly because of difficulties in transportation and Marketing.
