According to Oyet, the district recorded 1.26 million metric tons of soya beans produced by farmers in the district in 2019 alone. In 2020, the production increased to 1.31 million metric tons and further grew to 1.37 million metric tons in 2021.
Justine Okeny, a farmer in Loyo Ajonga village in Lakwaya Sub-county, says he harvested 1,200 kilograms of soya beans from his two-acre garden but earned far less money than he had anticipated.
