Central Eastern Northern Western
Almost all Uganda’s land is arable; excluding wetlands,
impediments, protected areas, and open water sources.
The northern region has the largest per capita potential
arable land of 1.5 acres while the East has the smallest
per capita arable land of about 0.6 acres.
Potential per capita arable land is likely to reduce with
time if the population keeps increasing.
