Description: MUARIK, located 19 Km North of the University main campus was formally sanctioned in 1996. The original facility at Kabanyolo was Makerere University Farm acquired from a private entrepreneur in 1953 for teaching, research and demonstration for the faculty of Agriculture. Since then, it has been a major source of vital information relevant to agricultural development in East Africa.

Training is achieved through provision of land, housing, library and laboratory and workshop facilities to enable students acquire hands-on-farming experience. MUARIK staff participated at various stages and in various capacities, both directly and indirectly under specific departments mandated to oversee training in respective disciplines. Staff has indicated willingness to play a more active role in undergraduate training programmes.
