President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has announced that the government will purchase the Mayuge Sugar Factory for Busoga sugarcane farmers. Recently, the people of Mayuge Sugar Factory came and wanted to sell it to me and give it to the poor people. Do you agree?” President Museveni asked, receiving a resounding “Yes!” from the farmers. Reject the unclean sugarcane,” President Museveni said. To further support sugarcane growers, President Museveni pledged a revolving fund to help them buy fertilizers, aimed at boosting sugarcane productivity per acre.
