Empowering Lyatonde Residents: Hon. Kabarongo’s Coffee Farming Initiative Transforms Mpumudde Community

Lyatonde District — A wave of positive change is sweeping through Mpumudde village in Lyatonde District, thanks to the compassionate leadership of Hon. Kabarongo. The legislator’s recent initiative to support local coffee farmers has already begun to yield tangible benefits, uplifting the livelihoods of residents and fostering sustainable development in the area.
In a heartfelt ceremony held last week, Hon. Kabarongo distributed high-quality coffee seeds to a dedicated group of women farmers, aiming to bolster their economic independence through improved agricultural practices. This gesture underscores her commitment to empowering vulnerable communities and promoting sustainable farming as a pathway to economic resilience.
One of the beneficiaries, Juliet, a mother of three and a small-scale farmer, expressed profound gratitude. “Thanks to Hon. Kabarongo’s support, I now have coffee seedlings that will help me cultivate my land. This will enable me to care for my family, pay school fees, and ensure we have enough food,” Juliet shared with a bright smile. She praised the legislator’s generosity and her unwavering support for women in agriculture.
The coffee seeds have allowed me to build a new house and provide for my family.
Similarly, Nicholas, another beneficiary and a young farmer from the village, credited the initiative for transforming his life. “The coffee seeds have allowed me to build a new house and provide for my family. I’ve learned new farming techniques through this project, which has opened up new sources of income for me,” he explained, visibly overwhelmed with appreciation.
Hon. Kabarongo’s project has not only provided seeds but also imparted valuable knowledge on coffee cultivation, equipping residents with skills to sustain their farming efforts long-term. The community has seen a marked improvement in livelihoods, with many residents now able to afford better housing, send children to school, and improve their overall quality of life.
Speaking at the event, Hon. Kabarongo emphasized her dedication to grassroots development. “Our goal is to empower our farmers and create a sustainable future for Lyatonde. Through initiatives like this, we can harness the potential of agriculture to uplift our community,” she stated.
Local leaders and community members have lauded Hon. Kabarongo’s efforts, describing her as a compassionate leader who genuinely cares about her people. As the coffee farming project continues to expand, many believe it will serve as a model for similar initiatives across the district.
The success story of Mpumudde exemplifies how targeted support and community-driven approaches can unlock the economic potential of agriculture. With continued commitment and collaboration, Lyatonde District is on the path toward a prosperous and sustainable future.
