New Plan to revive potato farming in Kenya

New Plan to revive potato farming in Kenya
augustus 03, 2009

The Ministry of Agriculture has embarked on the revival of potato growing to boost the country’s food security. Among the key priorities are the rehabilitation of cold stores, construction and equipping tissue culture laboratories and green houses.

One such cold house that has been under-utilised for more than 15 years is that owned by Agricultural Development Corporation in Molo. The project that was started in 1985 was co financed by the Kenyan and Dutch governments to multiply clean seed potato materials.

The government has now declared it’s commitment to the revitalisation of the sub-sector to give Kenyans more options in terms of food.
