Cattle Return to Acholi, Lango and Teso

Cattle are returning to Acholi, Lango and Teso. The development marks a revival for northern Uganda’s livestock landscape, according to Daily Monitor Uganda (direct), which reports that the north is recovering its former standing as a cattle-rearing region.

The report identifies the three areas as part of that return. Its description points to a renewed role for a region previously known for raising cattle, rather than the emergence of a new livestock centre.

For business readers following agriculture, the development puts northern Uganda’s cattle sector back in focus. The supplied source material does not give herd numbers, livestock prices or trade figures, so the scale of the revival cannot be assessed from it.

What to watch next is the extent of that recovery across Acholi, Lango and Teso. Evidence on cattle numbers and market activity would help establish how far the reported comeback has progressed.
