Crops offers a comprehensive survey of the various strategies for managing and developing increased and sustainable crop production. The study is organised into eight parts, which are: plant genetics and plant genetic resources in Uganda; cereals - milllets, sorghum and maize, oil crops; grain and legumes; roots and tubers - cassava, yams, sweet potatoes and solanum potatoes, and plantains. The remainder of the study concentrates on the agricultural production of traditional cash crop - cotton, coffee, tea, cocoa and sugar; and touches upon new areas, such sa sericulture and mushroom cultivation.

Kigezi, a district in southwestern Uganda, is exceptional in many ways. In contrast to many other parts of the colonial world, this district did not adopt cash crops. Soil conservation practices were successfully adopted, and the region maintained a remarkably developed and individualized land market from the early colonial period. Grace Carswell presents a comprehensive study of livelihoods in Kigezi. Following the lead of groundbreaking studies by Tiffen, Fairhead, and Leach, her case study confirms recent research suggesting that the usual assumptions about population pressure, environment, and long-term land-use change need to be questioned. Her findings are particularly exciting for all those involved in the ongoing key debates in natural resource management, development studies, and environmental history.

The first comprehensive account of agriculture in Uganda was made in 1940 and updated in 1970. Since that publication, agriculture in Uganda has undergone a number of developments, taking advantage of the economic and technical changes now available. In this context the National Agricultural Research Organisation (NARO) and the CTA have written a new four volume series focussing on the strategic issues facing agriculture. It is written for farmers and agro-based industrialists as well as researchers, civil leaders and NGOs, universities and collaborating partners in agricultural research and development in Uganda, and more broadly, in sub-Saharan Africa. It aims to provide guidelines for increased and sustainable agricultural production and productivity. This, the first volume, provides background information to the physical environment, research techniques and methodology, and marketing and agricultural technology in anticipation of the next three volumes: Crops, Forestry, and Livestock and Fisheries.
