The Rt. Hon. Prime-Minister, Hon. Ministers (present and past), Ladies and Gentlemen,
Good morning! In my remarks, I wish to highlight the numerous policy interventions and schemes undertaken by the Government of Uganda since the 1960s particularly those that had the banking industry actively involved; identify what I think is the most optimal strategy for agricultural modernization, and third, is to reiterate what I envisage as the appropriate role for the state in agricultural financing.
