Smallholder pig production in Uganda is constrained by poor management and high disease burden, with African swine fever (ASF) being one of the most important contributors. However, data to develop appropriate evidence-based disease mitigating interventions along the pig value chain are lacking. ...

Since 1986, the numbers of pigs in Uganda have at least quadrupled and today’s more than two million pigs are in the hands of 1.1 million households. Up to 70% of all pork is estimated to be consumed in urban and peri-urban areas, mainly through informal road-side butcheries and ‘pork joints’. In...

Background The productivity of pigs in smallholder systems is affected by high disease burden, most of which might not be obvious, with their epidemiology and impact being poorly understood. This study estimated the seroprevalence and identified the risk factors of a range of bacterial and viral ...

Pig production is thriving in Uganda and the demand for pork is increasing, therefore offering potential for increased income from pig production and marketing. The consumers’ preferences determine and potentially drive this demand but are largely unknown in the context of Uganda. As part of a mu...
