FARMKENYA INITIATIVE Smart Harvest By Boniface Gikandi | December 20th 2020 at 06:55:00 GMT +0300 Murang’a Governor Mwangi wa Iria distributes avocado seedling to a resident who registered with agriculture extension workers. [Boniface Gikandi, Standard] For every ten households you count in Murang’a County, at least half have some tree nurseries or mature avocado trees on their farm. Here, avocado is like gold.  Statistics show Murang’a County is the leading producer of avocados in Kenya, with more than 80 per cent of the produce destined for the export market.  Kandara and Gatanga are the high producers of the fruit, with this year farmers  taking home Sh2.8 billion compared to previous Sh3.9 billion.
