Introduction;
Uganda’s Agricultural Overview
3. Farm Tenancy;
Some farmers in Uganda grow crops and rear animals
on land owned by someone else. The development of land
lord tenancy laws and concepts which provide for the
temporary use of land by another, with assurances of being
paid rent, make the extensive use of leases
within Ugandan agriculture possible.
The Tenancy of land is provided under section 31
of the Land Act 1998. Under this section the
tenant by occupancy has pay to the registered
owner an annual nominal ground rent which can
also be determined by the land board.

academics visible proof of the existence of
agricultural law and a sense of the breadth of the
topic.

professional development of agricultural law.

agricultural law. Such organizations can also form national
bar associations involved in agricultural law in an effort to
meet the needs of rural and agricultural practitioners.

lawyers and Agribusinesses so as to conduct a number of
activities focusing on the use of the correspondent
relationship among lawyers to give general
practitioners improved access to specialists in order
to improve the quality of legal practice in rural areas.
Such activities can lead to the development of
agricultural law as a recognized field of practice.
