Anastasia Mwamula, a farmer in Butaleja, Uganda, successfully used the ancient Chinese tradition of breeding fish in flooded paddy fields and other techniques taught under the the FAO-China-Uganda South-South Cooperation (SSC) project to quadruple her rice harvest and double the fish production. The aim of the FAO-China-Uganda South-South Cooperation (SSC) project is to increase the productivity of Ugandan farmers and help them produce more with less by providing them with training, technology and technical assistance across a wide range of areas, from crop production and animal husbandry to aquaculture and sericulture. The project is also designed to help farmers bring their products to market through value chain development and post-harvest handling.
