2014 December - Lamwo district, East Acholi province, Uganda. When children are on break from school (as these children, on Christmas holiday) they join their parents in the sesame fields for harvest. Sesame is an increasingly important crop in this region, both as a healthy food and as a valuable commodity. Agriculture employs about 80% of Uganda's workforce, so Mercy Corps partners with private agricultural businesses to build a more robust market where farmers have the information and knowledge they need to maximize the quality and yield of their crops as well as to successfully sell at market. Mercy Corps has pioneered the practice of contract farming, through its partnership with local output buyer, GADC. The contracts reduce the risk for famers to invest in a relatively new crop like sesame, and help them anticipate the prices they'll attain for their crops at the market. On average, farmers who have contracted with GADC report a 100% increase in their income earned from sesame.
