Memories of an Inspiring Day at the Kitui Agricultural Show! This year's theme, "Promoting Climate Smart Agriculture and Trade Initiatives for Sustainable Food and Nutrition Security and Economic Growth,"
Prof. Kimatu is a beacon of greatness and humility.

Our CIO @FredMutia, under the DTCs 4 Youth Jobs Creation Project, represented us at the Field Day. Themed ‘Promoting Resilient Agriculture for Food, Trade and Nutrition Security through Sorghum Growing’, the event showcased bird-resistant varieties like Pato I & Smart Sorghum.
@AfricaHarvestKe joined @kalromkulima’s Sorghum Field Day at Scolastica Nduku’s farm in Kawuongo, Kitui, alongside 600+ farmers, youth & partners. A powerful push for resilient farming in Kenya’s drylands.
Poultry feed formulation (Growers).
Grower Feed (9-20 weeks)
- Maize: 60 kg
- Soya Meal: 14 kg
- Fish Meal: 10 kg
- Maize Bran: 7 kg
- Sunflower Cake: 5 kg
- Limestone: 2.5 kg
- Bone Meal: 1.2 kg
- Salt: 200 grams
- Premix: 100 grams

This formulation lowers the protein content to around 16-18%, which is ideal for the continued growth and preparation of the birds for laying.

2023 was year of the millet. Sorghum is one. It is a climate smart, healthy alternative to maize meal. It’s healthy for us and healthy for the planet. Amaranth to replace spinach.
Are y’all ready to make these changes?
