The General Manager oversees every individual farm manager, and, in concert with our  full-time Financial Administrator, Miss Fiona Onyinda, inspects the books, inventory and records of every farm. Accountability is the name of the game. The General Manager will assign all tractors and ancillary machinery to individual SFC farms at his discretion as General Manager. In consultation with the individual farm manager he decides on what crops to grow and on the sales and distribution of the crops. It is his responsibility to cut costs, distribute funds as needed, and bring every existing farm into a self-sustaining position by mid 2010 and oversee the development of new farms to self-sustainability within twenty-four months of their founding.

At this point, hundreds of new acreage are being cleared and made ready for ploughing, harrowing, cultivating and harvesting. This will both increase the harvest, and bring the farms into a self-sustaining position.

The General Manager makes all decisions as to which machinery, including tractors, ancillary equipment; vehicles of every kind and supplies are to be allocated to any given SFC farm. He is the “keeper-of-the-keys”!

The General Manager also supervises the full time mechanics now on staff. Eddie and Hamsa both of whom have had mechanical training and experience has been with farm machinery and equipment in Uganda.
