ProjectFactsheetCounties that Count – A Pilot Project on Strengthening Capacity for Effective Agriculture Data and Knowledge Management through the Kenya Integrated Agriculture Management Information System (KIAMIS) - TCP/KEN/3706 2022
Also available in:
No results found.With a rapidly increasing population and stagnating agricultural production, significant questions are being raised as to how Kenya will achieve food security The majority of Kenya’s agricultural harvest is produced by smallholders, whose farms are characterized by high production costs and low yields In order to boost smallholder production in the past, the country ran large fertilizer subsidy programmes under which large quantities of fertilizer were purchased and distributed to key warehouses for collection by farmers The main problems with this system revolved around the following issues the frequent late arrival of fertilizer, the blanket application of one type of fertilizer for all soil types in the country and the exclusion of the private sector in the provision of fertilizers In response to these issues, the country committed itself to the development of a nationwide subsidy programme that would enable the registration of farmers and support their access to a wide range of agricultural inputs and extension messages through e vouchers and short message service messages Another reason for low production was the lack of access to information Agricultural data were fragmented, with counties, MoALF&C and KNBS collecting statistics but rarely agreeing on common data collection and publication protocols. -

贸易与粮食安全：更好地平衡国家重点与集体利益
2015全球农产品和粮食产品贸易已在最近几十年取得快速增长，各国作为出口或进口方越来越多地参与这一贸易进程。这种趋势预计将在今后几十年中持续。因此，贸易将在全球各区域对粮食安全的程度和性质产生越来越重要的影响。我们面临的挑战就是确保农产品贸易的扩大能对消除饥饿、粮食不安全和营养不良起到促进作用，而不是阻碍作用。 本版《农产品市场状况》旨在缓解目前各方在农产品贸易对粮食安全产生的影响以及如何管理农产品贸易以确保贸易开放度的增加能惠及所有国家等问题上出现的观点两极分化现象。本书通过就一系列话题举证和说明，努力促成各方就政策选择开展有实证依据的辩论，并在政策选择过程中努力实现必要的改进。
