Recent Projects
- Galana Maize Project
As maize is a staple crop with significant demand in food, animal feed, and industrial markets, we have helped the Galana people on yield improvements and quality maize production practices.
Sustainability Practices Learned
- Rotate maize with legumes (e.g., beans, soybeans) to improve soil fertility.
- Minimize chemical use by integrating pest management techniques.
- Use organic fertilizers and cover crops to enhance soil health.
- Cassava Mechanization Project
We have helped farmers with machines and tools to streamline cassava farming operations in the Rift Valley Region, from land preparation to planting, harvesting, and processing.
Benefits of Cassava Mechanization
- Higher Efficiency: Reduces labor and speeds up farming processes.
- Increased Yields: Proper planting and weed control improve productivity.
- Reduced Post-Harvest Losses: Faster processing minimizes spoilage.
- Cost Savings: Long-term cost savings through reduced labor dependency.
- Scalability: Makes large-scale cassava farming more feasible.
- Seed Program for Africa
Several farmers from around the East Africa region have benefitted from access to high-quality seeds essential for improving agricultural productivity and ensuring food security.
Key Objectives of the Seed Program
- Improve Crop Yields: Provide access to high-yielding, climate-resilient seed varieties.
- Enhance Food Security: Ensure the availability of quality seeds to meet growing food demand.
- Promote Sustainable Agriculture: Encourage the use of disease-resistant, drought-tolerant, and pest-tolerant seeds.
- Increase Farmer Income: Boost productivity and profitability for farmers.
- Facilitate Market Access: Connect farmers to markets for certified and improved seeds.
