Authorities in Namutumba District are looking for a contractor to run a Shs100 million milk cooler tank, which has sat idle in Nakyere Village, Namutumba Sub-county for the past 17 years.
The 1,500-litre facility was established during the 2008/2009 financial year as part of a presidential initiative under the Community Agriculture Infrastructure Improvement Programme (CAIIP) to add value to milk after the government distributed heifers to model farmer groups in the Busoga Sub-region.
However, it is rusting away because dairy farmers failed to produce adequate milk.
