Majority of farmers in the West Nile region of Uganda are smallholder farmers who produce for subsistence use and only sell the surplus yet they have vast and productive land for farming. Use of rudimentary tools like the hand hoe that are labour-intensive is predominant. The use of animal traction is increasingly becoming a pro-farmer labour-saving intervention for scaling up agricultural production as it enables land opening in large acreage within a short time, leads to increased yields and quality of produce which in turn results into high income. Animal traction has also proved to be an attractive source of employment and income to the youths and youth groups. This operation guideline, therefore, provides broad criteria on how a group can own, use, expand its business and keep the animal traction technology well.
