Uganda’s importers, seeing the shift, have invested in new mills in the country, expanding employment and creating competition for farmers’ output, improving prices. New mills, meanwhile, lowered the cost of bringing domestic rice to market, so that consumers now still pay about the same for rice as they always have.
乌干达的进口商们看到这一转变，就投资在该国建立新的碾米厂，扩大了就业并在农户的产量上造成竞争从而改善价格。而新的碾米厂降低了国内大米上市的成本，因此消费者所承受的米价与原来基本相当。
