Kyegegwa is approximately 110 kilometres (68 mi), east of Fort Portal, the largest town in the Toro sub-region.[1]

The economic activities

  • Livestock farming
  • cultivation mainly; maize, bananas, fruits, beans, groundnuts, cassava, millet, iris potatoes, sweet potatoes.
  • Aquaculture/Fish farming
  • Business in agricultural produce and livestock
  • Apiculture (beekeeping): The District has a total number of 200 active beekeepers with estimated honey production of 30 tonnes per year. Kakabara sub county ranks in honey production contributing 40% of the estimated production in the District. Beekeeping has helped communities in the District to improve on their livelihoods since it does not require much land and has minimum management activities compared to other activities such as livestock and crop. The Entomology sector as mandated has continued to engage more farmers to start beekeeping as well technically guiding active beekeepers on core challenges related to management of apiaries, value addition and marketing.

One of the major sources of income of Kyegegwa is markets, mainly the Rwensasi market, located in Ruyonza sub-county, Kyaka South, Kyegegwa district. It is in the southwestern part of the district, 12 km along Kyegegwa-Katonga road.

Rwensasi market is a farmers' group business Mpara Farmers Association initiated by Katuramu George William in 1998. It was formed after the closure of Nyarubabo market in 1992, due to east-coast fever.

Rwensasi market contributes 60% of Ruyonza sub county and 40% of Kyegegwa district.[4]
