@FredBwino directs district staff, the District Task Force, and the agriculture police to enforce the harvest window, ensure proper trading practices, and protect the integrity of Uganda’s vanilla industry.

According to @FredBwino, the vanilla harvest window for Season B of 2025 will run from 29th December to 29th March 2026, with farmers urged to harvest only mature beans to maintain quality and avoid penalties.

@FredBwino acknowledges ongoing challenges in the industry, including premature harvesting, theft, illegal trading, and slow adoption of best practices, stressing the need to address them to protect Uganda’s competitiveness.

@FredBwino adds that 15 districts now have vanilla quality control ordinances, with task forces established at national and district levels to improve traceability, scientific maturity assessments, and overall quality.

.@FredBwino mentions that new opportunities are opening in China, driven by Uganda’s superior vanilla quality and growing reputation in premium markets.

According to @FredBwino, Uganda’s two harvest seasons and vanillin content above 4% continue to boost global demand, with the country’s market share rising from 3% to 12% in the US and from 1% to 10% in the European Union.

@FredBwino notes that Uganda exported 604 metric tons of vanilla in 2024, up from 266 metric tons the previous year, earning the country $16.6 million thanks to better farmer practices and stronger regulation.

Hon. @FredBwino, the State Minister @MAAIF_Uganda, is briefing the press on the upcoming vanilla harvest and measures being taken to safeguard it.
