The Cotton Development Organization (CDO) estimates that the cotton value chain employs a total of 2.5 million people, directly and indirectly, in the production and marketing of its primary products, such as textiles and garments, as well as its by-products, such as soap, edible oil and animal feed. 2.

oil production. Due to economic mismanagement and social strife which prevailed in the late 1970s and 1980s, cotton production declined dramatically to as low as approximately 11,000 bales in 1987/88 (Table 1). The yields of Uganda Cotton from 1924 through to 1968 varied between 200 kg and 450 kg/ha of seed cotton (Carr,1993).
There is high demand for edible oil in Uganda, standing at 120,000 MT against a production capacity of 40,000 MT, leaving a deficit of 80,000 MT annually. The WHO’s recommended per capita consumption of edible oil is 19.21 kg per person per annum, and in Uganda it is about 3.2 kg (16%). Uganda’s high and rising edible oil trade deficits are

Similarly seed cotton yield and total benefits generated from cotton production are also higher in Kasese. These results correspond to what have been reported by local institutes. On the other hand it seems that the susceptibility to cotton bollworm is higher in Kasese than in Lira, implying that Bt-cotton could have a higher success in the

According to CDO, cotton yields between 2013 and 2017 varied between 700 and 850 kg/ha of seed cotton. Despite a long tradition of growing cotton in Uganda, productivity is low, with an average yield of about 780 kg/ha compared to the international average of 900 kg/ha (Horna, Kyotalimye, & Falck-Zepeda, 2009).
Cotton is a highly profitable agricultural crop globally, valued for its valuable natural cellulosic fibres, renewable biofuel potential, and rich edible oil content. Global cotton production is impeded by multiple biotic and abiotic stresses, compounded with the ever-increasing human population and demands, necessitating enhanced and sustainable yields. Although traditional breeding
