Uganda’s vibrant agricultural heritage takes center stage once again with the 32nd National Agricultural Show, scheduled for June 26th to July 5th, 2026, at the Jinja Agricultural Showgrounds.
Immediately following is the 5th National Agricultural Education Show from July 6th to 11th, 2026.
Organized by the Uganda National Farmers Federation (UNFFE), the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries (MAAIF), and the National Agricultural Research Organisation (NARO), this premier event celebrates farming innovation, improved crop varieties, resilient livestock technologies, and sustainable practices that power Uganda’s economy.

Expect displays of high-yield, climate-resilient crops, modern livestock solutions, agribusiness exhibitions, and hands-on demonstrations that highlight Uganda’s progress toward food security and economic growth.
