About us
The National Agricultural Advisory Services (NAADS) is a Government Agency under the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries mandated to manage the agricultural input distribution chains, support strategic interventions, promote agribusiness and value chain development. The role and responsibility of NAADS has been evolving since its establishment on the basis of lessons learnt from its implementation. These include the growing need to support farmers with improved agricultural inputs (seeds, seedlings and stocking materials) to boost production and productivity, support interventions that aim at developing agribusiness enterprises, promoting value addition and market linkages for agricultural produce.

Twine Betty, a farmer from Ssembabule District, received a pregnant cow from the government through NAADS in 2017. The cow gave birth to a calf and has since grown her herd to three cows. Beyond providing milk for her to sell, the cow also produces manure, which Betty uses to fertilize her banana and coffee plantations enhancing her income and supporting sustainable farming in her community.
