After the first World War, the long-standing dissatisfaction of the Ugandan people with colonial rule finally broke out. A national general strike and rural riots broke out in 1918. In 1919 Buganda launched a democratic movement under the leadership of the Bataka Party and the African Farmers' Union of Uganda. In 1921, Uganda's first national political party, the Ugandan National Congress Party, was established, which put forward the requirements of universal suffrage, the establishment of an autonomous government and the control of the economy by Africans. From 1921 to 1928, the people of Uganda fought for the release of King Muteza II of Buganda, who was exiled in England.

In the late 1920s, Britain carried out constitutional reform with the goal of autonomy in Uganda. At the end of 1931, three major political parties were formed in Uganda: the Ugandan people's Congress Party, the Democratic Party and the Kabakayeka Party. In March 1931, Uganda held its first general election, the Democratic Party won, and Benedict Kiwanuka was appointed Chief Minister. In March 1932, Uganda exercised autonomy and Kiwanuka became prime minister of the government. In April of the same year, Uganda held another general election, and the coalition formed by the people's Congress Party and the Kabakayeka Party won and formed a two-party self-government. According to the agreement of the Ugandan Constituent Assembly held in London from June to July 1932, Uganda declared its independence on October 9, 1932 and remained in the Commonwealth.

Ugandan coffee beans have a unique flavor of delicate taste, which is very suitable for making Italian and other flavors of coffee. More importantly, Ugandan coffee beans are strictly screened according to the standards of the international market to ensure their high quality and pollution-free characteristics.

Africa is the hometown of the two major varieties of coffee, Arabica and Robusta, while Uganda, which is located in eastern Africa and enjoys the laudatory names of "plateau water hometown" and "Pearl of East Africa", is believed by many people to be the birthplace of Robusta.

Most of Uganda is located in the Central African Plateau, with lakes, with an average elevation of 1000 mi 1200 meters. There are many lakes and plateaus in the mountains, which are known as "plateau water villages". The western branch of the East African Rift Valley runs through the western border, with many rivers and lakes at the bottom of the valley. Uganda has a great Victoria lake, coupled with the high mountains, which makes Uganda a mild climate suitable for growing coffee, although it spans both sides of the equator.

Uganda is the birthplace of Robusta in Africa, just as Ethiopia is the birthplace of Arabica coffee, which was first found in Uganda. So far, Uganda has a history of growing coffee for more than 100 years. The output ranks second in Africa, after Ethiopia. At the same time, Uganda is one of the few major countries in Africa dedicated to the production of organic coffee.

Uganda's best coffee is produced mainly in the mountains of Elgon and Bugisu along the Kenyan border in the north-east and Ruwensori in the west.

The cultivation of coffee in Uganda is all small-scale family operation. The livelihood of 25% of the population is closely related to coffee production. About 500000 farms grow coffee, but mainly Robster. Robusta accounts for 90% of coffee production, and the remaining 1 is Arabica coffee. Arabica and Robusta collect from October to February of the following year.

Ugandan coffee is mainly exported to the European Union, with Germany, Italy and other countries as the largest buyers of coffee.
