Abstract

The Uganda National Fertiliser Policy (NFP) brings together all the related fragmented regulations into a single and comprehensive policy framework on fertiliser. In the past, Government served as the central agency responsible for fertiliser importation and delivery to designated points in the country, until the liberalisation policy was adopted in 1990. During this period and thereafter, there have been policy and regulatory frameworks to control agricultural chemicals. Currently, the law in place is the Agricultural Chemical (Control) Act, 2006, which controls and regulates the manufacture, storage, distribution and trade in, use, importation and exportation of agricultural chemicals. However, this Act is broad and hence the need for a specific policy to guide stakeholders in increasing availability and sustainable use of fertilisers.
