Lessons from organic farmers who dared to dream big - FarmKenya Initiative


FARMKENYA INITIATIVE
Esther Kagai, an organic farmer and trainer on her Kiserian farm.
Peter Gicharu was a small boy in 1953 when he began farming. He was in a primary school near Mang’u, Kiambu County, and growing food crops in the school garden was part of practical lessons in agriculture.
Back then, Gicharu did not know that what he and the other pupils were practising was organic farming. He, however, remembers that they did not use any chemicals to enhance soil fertility or kill pests, but instead used compost material and mulching to grow food crops.
The former banker who retired in 1987 after 20 years in the financial industry is an organic farmer in Upper Matasia, near Ngong, still using similar methods he learned in school, close to 70 years ago.

An acute milk shortage has hit Migori County, with the regional government urging locals to venture into dairy farming.
Data from the Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries department shows the county produces on average 25 million litres of milk annually, which is way lower than its demand of 88 million litres.
Because of the shortage, the county is forced to import at least 10 per cent of its requirements from Tanzania, and also from Trans Mara, Nandi and Homa Bay counties. ....
