Livestock Production Systems in Uganda

This map shows the prevalence of rangeland-based livestock-only systems (tan colors) across the north. Uganda’s largest livestock production area falls in the mixed rainfed crop-livestock category in the humid and subhumid zone (medium shade of turquoise) across the center of the country. The dark turquoise areas are the mixed rainfed crop-livestock system in the temperate and tropical highland zone, seen in the higher altitude areas of southern and western Uganda and along the Kenyan border in eastern Uganda.
