Kenya's protein crisis is silent but catastrophic. 26% of children under 5 are stunted. Malnutrition costs the country KES 273.9 billion/yr, 6.9% of GDP. The cognitive damage is irreversible. Here's what the evidence says, and how poultry, pigs & oily fish can fix it.
A short🧵
Currently halfway through this report and it’s only hitting me just how much of a pain in the backside Gaddafi was. Even worse than Saddam Hussein, who, for all his faults, wasn’t an Islamist. Gaddafi was quite literally orchestrating international terrorism.
@Maina_Poultry "Unfortunately, their research is trash, they cook data, have no academic discipline and they publish in predatory journals, just because they are in need of certs for promotion purposes."
Even at the university setting...this is the reality
Let's start with travel. 60%-80% of travel by the executive is completely unnecessary! Hakuna vile you guys are busy pumping money into private jets and helicopters just to go shout "Usawa ni Sawa".
China realized that progress must be achieved at the expense of some. Even the West, progress had to be achieved at the expense of the slaves and low labour ethics and only liberalism made them stop it, and now you can see they are sinking into more chaos.
At the core of human civilizations, progress of any state or society must be at the expense of some, be it overworked and underpaid working class, donkey like farmers who serve the greater good, construction workers who must die in concrete jungles to provide housing for the greater majority, dangerous coal mines for the greater good.
Civilizational urgency is not and cannot be based on do-gooder, be good and let's be good philosophies, pragmatism demands that we all know for a country to grow and develop, some must suffer degradation, death, chaos, dehumanization, coal must be mined and if that is the case forcefully re-educate everyone opposed to it, ports must be built and therefore you must do the needful. That is what China did, that is what the west did, third worlders need to think about such things seriously.
How did China get out poverty without imf, wb and NGOs? The institutions aren't synonymous with Asian tigers from extreme poverty to high income economy transformation.
Tells you that we need to get rid ndii of the world.
Hahahahahahaha remember how this same thing comes up here and we are told that the littering is because sakaja hajaweka bins CBD? Turns out there is a gene in turd worlders that makes them allergic to cleanliness.
The contempt old geezers have for young people sipped into the maandamano the minute they started calling it “Gen Z protests” & some Gen Zs took it up like it was just about them, not the whole the country. That’s where the divide became bigger.
I want to remind people that the only reason I have ever argued for the abolition of mahari is that nobody knows what they are doing anymore.
Mahari inafanyiwa mchango na marafiki au groom anajilipia ni ya nini?!
Kùracia mwanamke alafu aamke atoke na aolewe kwingine 🙄.
There is a form of an inhuman and vicious streak that is very evident on your president's face and voice.
I don't know how many of you can feel or see it, but it is very evident if you are the type that observes human behavior.
His voice has a tonal variation that is full of cruelty, his smile is often insidious: a smile I have seen with white people, cold and fake!
There is something wrong somewhere, even President Moi had a mirth that was infectious to those around him, what I see now is coldness, death, hate ....
(A cold-blooded aura often found in narcissists)
@Maina_Poultry My brother look for someone to give you the 411 on the employment exercise that took place in 2022-2023 plus the super mergers that created KALRO ( ulikua majuu then I think 🤔) usikie mambo boss 🤔🤔🔥🔥😭😭🤣🤣
How to kill competition in the sausages Industry:
In 2010 QMP launched a sausages brand in the retail market.
-Sales grew rapidly. The price was better and market leader farmers Choice & Alpha Foods. Quality was said to be 'same'. restaurants prefered this because of better pricing.
-Boom. Panic in Kahawa West! Sales dashboards which are discussed at 630am tasting panel attended by the MD were all red.
A counter attack was launched.
-QMP got calls from nearly all Tuskys & Nakumatt branches. "Come and pick your damages. Damages were more than 60% of qty supplied"
-Unknown to all, 100s of merchandisers had been dispatched to branches to puncture QMP sausage packets with needles. QMP halted the project!
*And thats how one of the fiercest retail battles was won. Not with quality or pricing ro better strategy. Hard cold skullduggery
Retail is Ruthless🙄🙄
Guess who was the first DG after collapsing various agricultural research institutions and eventually even leased ADC potatoes seeds farm to someone to plant maize. Guess tu.
There is no milk in the market because the number of dairy cows has decreased.Drought and the high cost of production have led to reduced milk production and even the neighbouring countries from which we import milk also do not have any.Those conspiracy theories don’t make sense.
Fun fact - KALRO is underfunded yes, in fact they depend on donors for most part, but, it is and will get worse due to chamgeinisation of the whole institution. Most experienced research scientists in that institution are now been managed and supervised by MSc holding Kalenjin folks. In fact, some station directors have no PhDs in their station discipline, only a surname is enough of a qualification.
Many if not all of the BSc holding research assistants at KALRO are Kalenjin, and all are currently doing MSc under partial and full scholarships are in the hope of taking over all the positions now and in the future in agricultural research.
Unfortunately, their research is trash, they cook data, have no academic discipline and they publish in predatory journals, just because they are in need of certs for promotion purposes.
That's why whatever research they do, is rarely acted upon nowadays because the research process is compromised and the data is compromised and not reproducible at all.
It was once an honorable institution, it is currently a chamgei corruption den when only sir names matter.
Fun fact - through their research, KALRO determined that some varities of our indigenous avocados are resistant to persea mite. Have they published or implemented their findings? No. They are completely underfunded and their existing budgets were slashed
So this Persea mite is native to Mexico and arrived here in 2023!
I have been wondering all along because it was such a strange thing to me when I started seeing it ravage the leaves.
See why we need a well funded and empowered KEPHIS and KALRO?
