Economic Research Working Paper No. 42: Enhancing innovation in the Ugandan agri-food sector: Robusta coffee planting material & tropical fruit processing - Geneva, Switzerland World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) April 2018 - 82 pages

Uganda's innovation performance in recent years has consistently outpaced other low-income and Sub-Saharan African countries. Though encouraging, this nascent progress will only benefit the broader Ugandan population if policy makers address specific constraints in the innovation systems of the critical agri-food sector, which is hampered by low productivity and profitability. In this report, we explore these constraints using an agricultural value chains framework with particular focus on the Robusta Coffee Planting Material Pipeline and tropical fruit processing.
