在过去十年中，订单农业在决策者和全球发展机构中重新获得势头，成为促进包容性农村发展和负责任投资的工具。我们被告知，将小农纳入全球、区域和国家农业价值链是减轻农村贫困的必要条件。在乌干达，在外包种植者计划的标签下，合同农业目前正在经历大规模扩张，特别是受到甘蔗种植繁荣的推动。本文从乌干达甘蔗订单农业的三个案例研究中得出结论，通过研究这些计划所嵌入的权力关系，重新政治化了围绕订单农业的辩论。我们认为，在乌干达的扩张中看到的是一种政治动力，既来自于建立种植园及其劳动力所需的重大错位和剥夺，也来自于努力使许多小农使用未经改进的方法在土地上，有时不明确的使用权安排进入合同安排供应甘蔗。其结果是围绕糖业扩张的政治争议很大，其中土地剥夺的斗争与围绕剥削性工资劳动的斗争相融合，围绕生计的丧失和转变，以及围绕债务，权力不平等和环境危害，国家暴力和拉拢的矩阵永远存在。
In the last decade, contract farming has regained momentum among policymakers and global development agencies as a tool to promote inclusive rural development and responsible investments. Integrating smallholders within global, regional and national agricultural value chains, we are told, represents the sine qua non for alleviating rural poverty. In Uganda, under the label of out‐grower schemes, contract farming is currently undergoing massive expansion, driven especially by the boom in sugarcane cultivation. Drawing from three case studies of sugarcane contract farming in Uganda, the paper re‐politicizes the debate around contract farming by looking at the power relations within which these schemes are embedded. We argue, what is seen in Uganda's expansion is a political dynamic derived both from the major dislocations and dispossessions required to establish the plantation estate and its work force, as well as from the effort to bring many smallholders using unimproved methods on land with sometimes unclear tenure arrangements into contracted arrangements for supplying sugarcane. The result has been highly contentious politics around sugar's expansion, where struggles over land dispossession merge with those around exploitative wage labour, around the loss and transformation of livelihoods, and around debt, power inequalities and environmental harm, a matrix in which state violence and co‐optation are ever‐present.
