According to farmers, the disease ravaged their cassava gardens between 2017 and 2019. 
Ms Christine Apiyo, a farmer in Akili Village in Koch Goma Sub-county, told Daily Monitor that she lost five acres of cassava plantation to the disease in 2018. 
Just like many other farmers in Nwoya, Ms Apiyo embraced cassava growing when the district passed an ordinance eight years ago. 
Initially, during harvest period, Ms Apiyo says she would collect about Shs1.8m from an acre of cassava.
