Large-Scale Commercial Farmers Financing Scheme

Government pays the interest on commercial bank loans to farmers cultivating over 50 acres of grains and animal feeds. 186 farmers have accessed Shs 169.1 billion so far.

Government of Uganda

In FY 2025/26, Shs 41 billion was provided for interest payments on behalf of large-scale farmers cultivating over 50 acres of grains and animal feeds. This support has so far enabled 186 farmers to access a total of Shs 169.1 billion from Government-owned commercial banks. The farmers repay the principal while Government pays the interest on their behalf. An additional Shs 41 billion has been allocated for FY 2026/27.

How to take part

The portal does not yet carry a verified application route or the current list of participating Government-owned banks — that gap is declared on the scheme record rather than filled with a guess. If you farm at this scale, tell PSDU and the enquiry will be routed.
