Fisheries
There is a general steady increase in
fish catch in Uganda. The estimated
fish catch increased from 249.0 tons
in 2004 to 721.0 tons in 2006. Most of
the catch is however processed for
export, leaving very little fish on the
local market. Fish prices have sky-
rocketed, yet fish previously provided
for a cheap and easily accessible
source of animal protein for the poor.
