Efficient Transport of Cash Crops in Kenya: A Backbone of Agricultural Trade

Image
  Transportation of cash crops in Kenya plays a vital role in connecting farmers to markets, both locally and internationally. As a country heavily dependent on agriculture, Kenya produces a variety of high-value cash crops such as tea, coffee, flowers, and horticultural products. Ensuring that these products reach markets in good condition and on time is essential for maintaining quality, competitiveness, and profitability. The primary mode of transport for most cash crops in Kenya is by road. Farmers, particularly in rural areas, rely on trucks, pick-up vans, and motorbikes (boda Bodas) to move produce from farms to collection centers or processing facilities. However, poor rural road networks can pose a major challenge, especially during the rainy season. In regions such as Kericho (tea) and Nyeri (coffee), farm-to-market roads often become impassable, causing delays and losses due to spoilage or reduced quality. Once processed, cash crops intended for export are transported t...

How to Prepare Chapati

Image
In the middle of Nani’s kitchen, there was a warm melody. It wasn’t the radio, but the sound made by a rolling pin which is gently pressed against an amount of flour. Today she was baking soft flat breads called chapatis that were always served as heart of meals. Raya, granddaughter to Nani, sat on a stool looking on, impressed. “Please tell me again about how you make chapati,” pleaded Raya wide-eyed.

A story as old as time, well almost; flour, like golden sand, touched by water which is actually a cool stream, changes into a doughy mountain.” With familiarity , Nani mixed up dough using her hands till it became elastic and rather like playful puppy. “Raya, see?
