    The study's overarching goal is to provide a theoretical foundation for the integration of EDI and ERP systems into Ugandan procurement and disposal entities' supply chains to optimize their performance. A design science approach was used as a research strategy and for data collection; a cross-sectional survey using qualitative techniques, including in-depth interviews was employed. From the findings, a model was developed for data visualization, report production, analytics, and transformation. This study therefore provides an in-depth evaluation of the effectiveness of procurement and disposal organizations in Uganda with the help of EDI and ERP technologies to enhance supply chain management

    Helping subsistence farmers make the leap into commercial agriculture was the driving force behind OWC or Operation Wealth Creation. The purpose of this research was to assess how the OWC program has affected the Mbarara area, dairy producers. The researchers used a descriptive study strategy and surveyed 161 dairy producers. There was a dramatic drop in poverty from 68 percent to 47 percent as a result of the 70.2% increase in milk output (using the poverty line criteria of $1.90 per day). This indicates that a majority of dairy producers (53.3%) have successfully adopted the use of currency. The major source of income in the Mbarara area is dairy farming, which is the focus of this study and sets it apart from previous studies. The advantages might be increased by enhancing post-harvest handling practices, particularly by finding ways to get the most out of milking equipment. The government should also emphasize the construction of auxiliary factories that can raise milk's value and increase the number of goods made from it. These efforts might increase agricultural productivity and decrease poverty while providing job possibilities for industrialists and farmers
