Romogi Farm

It has been decided by the Board of Directors in April 2007 that the Romogi farm will be gradually transformed into a fruit tree farm. High bred orange, lemon and lime trees will be imported and will produce within several years. Other fruit, such as passion fruit, pineapples, papaya, guava and other indigenous fruit will also be introduced. A nursery will be established for raising stock for enlargement of the farm, and for supplying nearby local farmers.

Plowed Land After ClearingEstablished in 2001, Romogi is located in a secure compound just outside the bombed-out city of Kajokeji, in south-western Sudan, just ninety miles north of Uganda in a very fertile area, but over almost impossible roads. Several fields have already been cleared, planted and harvested. They have their own grinding mill as well as the tractors and equipment for 21st century farming. The Manager is Captain Joseph Kenyi Killion who is also a Wild Life Reservation Officer. It is on a sound operating basis.

Approximately seventy-five acres have been cleared, with more acreage to be cleared. This will bring self-sustainability to this farm. Various grain crops have been successfully grown in bulk.

Root plants, such as cassava have also been very successful, although twenty-five acres of a mature crop were taken by hungry returning refugees, setting the profitability of the farm back by about a year. Highland rice, maize, beans of many types, G-nuts (peanuts), millet and sorghum are presently being grown. Market vegetables are now being introduced.
