Parthenium in Uganda

Is there anyone who is working to inform people in Uganda about parthenium and its dangers? I live in Soroti and have been watching for it for years since I learned about it at ECHO Arusha in 2016, I believe. In the past few years I’ve noticed it spreading especially around Kampala and some other cities where road work is going on. A few weeks ago, I saw some in Soroti for the first time, as well as a single plant in Toroma. I am going to make some posters with information about the plant to share with the farmer groups and pastors I work with as well as the LCs of my area.

@Charles_Bonny do you know of any activities in Uganda around the control of parthenium?

Hi we are developed an bioremediation and water based solution for Parthenium weeds which will eradicate the parthenium weed completely and it is patented. If any one need more information send the mail to nextstepconsultingtrading@gamil.com
