Over 5,000 Busia Farmers to Benefit From Kalro Certified Millet Seed

Approximately 5,000 farmers in Busia are set to benefit from high-yielding millet varieties as subsistence growers set eyes on large-scale production.

The programme, supported by Centre for Behaviour Change and Communication, Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organisation and Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service will be rolled out starting 2025 after successfully being piloted among selected farmers in Teso South subcounty.
