Limoto wetland regenerates after farmers settle in the upland

Published By MWE |  November 14, 2023

After a strategic approach from a decision taken in 2018, Limoto wetland located in Pallisa district is regenerating. Before that year, the communities were growing rice in the wetland, actions that saw the wetland dry off. However, the wetland is regenerating and can now retain water throughout the year.

The process of conserving the wetland saw 13 groups of farmers settle upland and are growing high value crops such as; green pepper, tomatoes, onions, cabbages and eggplants
