dc.description.abstract The Ugandan government has identified rice as a strategic crop to combat food insecurity and boost economic standards. A study will focus on the Ugandan rice sector, collecting data from historical records and focusing on rice farmers across the country. The data will include socioeconomic, agronomic, and environmental data. Socioeconomic data will include farm size, ownership, and management structure, while agronomic data will focus on crop management practices and environmental factors. The study will use deep learning techniques and consider yearly rice crop yields, regardless of the two major growing seasons. The data collection will be conducted across all commercial rice growing districts in Uganda. en_US
