Cassava Farming

Lira-Magoya Investment Limited is proud to own and operate a sprawling cassava farm spanning 250 acres of fertile land. Nestled in the heart of Oroko Parish, Palaro Sub-county, Gulu District, this farm is an agricultural gem in the region. Some acres of this vast expanse have already been meticulously cultivated, thriving with the resilient and high-yielding NAROCAS 1 cassava variety, known for its exceptional resistance to drought and diseases.

With its impressive size and productivity, LIMA Farm stands tall as the largest arable farm in Gulu District, surpassed only by the renowned Lugore Prison's Farm. The commitment to agricultural excellence and community development is at the core of the farm's mission.

One of the primary goals of the farm is to provide small-scale farmers with access to high-quality cassava stems. By offering these stems to local farmers, LIMA Farm has contributed to the growth and sustainability of the agricultural sector in the surrounding communities. This strategic initiative has not only empowered farmers by enabling them to cultivate their cassava crops with superior planting material but also promoted the adoption of advanced farming techniques and improved yields.

In addition to supporting local farmers, the LIMA Farm has set up a state-of-the-art cassava processing plant. This project has served as a vital link in the cassava value chain, transforming the harvested cassava into a range of value-added products. By doing so, the farm has created a ready market for fresh cassava, while also reducing post-harvest losses and maximizing the economic potential of the crop.

By harnessing the rich harvest from our farm and collaborating with local farmers, we have significantly improved household incomes within the community. As the demand for cassava-based products continues to rise, the farm's production and processing efforts will ensure a steady supply of high-quality cassava flour, meeting the needs of consumers and various industries.

Through its dedication to excellence in agriculture and the promotion of sustainable economic development, LIMA Farm has made a lasting impact on the local community. As the farm continues to expand and innovate, we remain steadfast in our commitment to enhancing livelihoods, fostering growth, and providing a valuable source of high-quality cassava products for the market.
