UPCHAIN impresses at Northern Uganda Agricultural Show

UPCHAIN participated in the Northern Uganda Agricultural show held between July 28 and June 3, 2022, at Pece Stadium in Gulu.
The theme of the show was: “Unlocking Agriculture Innovation, Technology and Agribusiness for Livelihood Reconstruction.”
The show offered an opportunity for UPCHAIN to showcase its innovations in Green Charcoal and disseminate information about the project to the public.
The items exhibited included Green charcoal production line equipment comprising the carbonizer, grinder, mixer, and extruder, a sample of green charcoal products (briquettes), and information packages about the UPCHAIN project including banners, brochures, and business cards.
A total of 210 visitors were registered in the Visitor Book. The number of unregistered visitors, however, was much bigger. Some of the notable visitors included Charles Ichongor (RDC Gulu District), Hon. Opiyo Christopher Ateker (LC V, Gulu District) Jane Frances Amongin Okili (RCC Gulu City), and Prof. William Kisaalita (University of Georgia, USA).
Most visitors described the exhibition by UPCHAIN as impressive, interesting, good, innovative, and commendable for environmental conservation. Others showed interest in the business part of the project and expressed the will to learn more from the project to enhance their knowledge and business in green charcoal.
