Map of Buikwe District



Historical BackgroundBuikwe District is one of the 28 Districts of Uganda that were created under the Local Government Act 1 of 1997. By the Act of Parliament, the District was initially one of the Counties of Mukono District but later declared an independent District in July 2009. The current Buikwe District consists of One County which is divided into three constituencies namely Buikwe North, Buikwe South and Buikwe West.

Location and SizeBuikwe District lies in the Central region of Uganda, sharing borders with the District of Jinja in the East, Kayunga along river Sezibwa in the North, Mukono in the West, and Buvuma in Lake Victoria. The District Headquar-ters is in Buikwe Town, situated along Kampala - Jinja road (11kms off Lugazi). Buikwe Town serves as an Administrative and commercial Centre. Other urban centers include Lugazi, Njeru and Nkokonjeru Town Councils. Buikwe District has a total area of about 1209 Square Kilometers.

TopographyThe northern part of the District is flat but the southern region consists of sloping land with great many undulations; 75% of the land is less than 60o in slope. Most of Buikwe District lies on a high plateau (1000-1300) above sea level with some areas along Sezibwa River below 760m above sea level, Southern Buikwe is a raised plateau (1220-2440m) drained by River Sezibwa and River Musamya. There are two main categories of soils namely; Ferralitic soils and Ferrisols.

Relief and ClimateThe mean annual rainfall is 11,000mm distributed over 106 rain days, with peaks in March – May and September – November. Temperatures range between 16oC and 28oc throughout the year. Both relief and cli-mate provide good potentials for investment in production of cash and food crops, horticulture and floriculture on a commercial basis. Existing

Background



commercial farms in the District also provide a good background for ex-perience sharing for those investors who want to venture in such areas.
