Construction of a Grain Processing and Storage Center
With our focus based on being a major agro procesisng industry in Uganda, we realize that we have a responsibility of improvong the marketability of our farmers produce and also our repsonsbility in addressing the ever increasing risk of food insecurity for the people of Uganda and other neighbouring countries. A resolution reached by our Board requires us to take up the task of constructing a state of the art Grain processing and storage center, which will mainly serve our farmers in the rural areas of Eastern Uganda and also other grain producing areas of Uganda. This plant will have a processing and storage capacity of 10,000 to 15,000 metric tonnes of grain and legumes, if funding permits.
We are currently soliciting for a funding to a tune of US$2 million (Two million US dollars) from local and international funding sources, to ensure that we canunder take this project 2018.
Upgrading the Rice mill at Busowa Trading Center
With the increase in the lowland and upland rice productivity in Uganda within the recent years, and the ever increasing demand for improved quality of the processed rice, Flora Cereals plans to upgrade its current rice mill that is operating the Engelberg mill technology (which is asscoiated with lower rice yield rates from paddy rice) to a newer advanced rice mill technology that incorporates rubber milling technology. This mill will be be able to perfom "All-in-One" operations of rice milling, to include; a paddy separator, a destoner, hulling machine, grain grader and color sorter plus an automatic packaging machine. This willl be the first of the kind mill to operate in our locale. Famers incomes will be improved through a reduction in the milling losses from rice breakage and also to offer high quality marketable produce to the local and international markets.
Installation is etsimated to start once funds from our funding sources are released. This project is estimated to cost about US$ 370,000.00 (Three hundred seventy thousand US dollars).
