CELAC

Collecting and Exchanging of Local Agriculture Content (CELAC) is a project of BROSDI (Busoga Rural Open Source and Development Initiative) aiming at use of ICT methods and knowledge-sharing to enhance poverty reduction and food security. CELAC operates in all the four regions in Uganda. The CELAC Project seeks to collect and exchange this local agricultural content that works from the farmers. It is common knowledge that the vast compiled agricultural content is for the literate, technologically advanced and economically privileged, leaving the farmers with little to salvage in terms of knowledge. CELAC utilises mobile and SMS technologies, among others, to desiminate its agricultural information
