  • JESA Farm Dairy announced a temporary shortage of milk products in Uganda because prolonged dry conditions have reduced production.
  • The dry spell has limited pasture and water for the company’s farm in Busunju and its out-grower farmers in central Uganda.
  • The company asked customers for patience and said it remains committed to product quality.

JESA Farm Dairy has warned Ugandan customers of a temporary shortage of its milk products, blaming a prolonged dry season that has reduced production across dairy-farming communities.

We would like to share an update on the current milk supply. We are experiencing a temporary shortage due to the prolonged dry season, which has affected all dairy farming communities and led to reduced milk production.

· JESA Farm Dairy managementThe company explained the cause of the temporary shortage in its statement.

In a statement issued on Sunday, management said the dry conditions had reduced the availability of pasture and water. The effects have been felt both at JESA’s farm in Busunju and among its network of out-grower farmers in central Uganda.

“We would like to share an update on the current milk supply. We are experiencing a temporary shortage due to the prolonged dry season, which has affected all dairy farming communities and led to reduced milk production,” the company said.

We kindly ask for your patience and understanding during this period.

· JESA Farm Dairy managementThe company appealed to customers as supplies declined.

JESA, which produces fresh milk, yoghurt and other dairy products, asked customers for patience and understanding. “We remain committed to delivering the quality you trust and we thank you for continuously choosing JESA,” management said. The announcement comes as farmers in several parts of Uganda report declining crop and livestock productivity during the extended dry spell.

We remain committed to delivering the quality you trust and we thank you for continuously choosing JESA.
