Food Security & Livelihoods

Milk production is rising sharply among more than 400 farmers across 130 households in Nyeri and Laikipia counties. Average yields have increased from 5 liters to 16 liters per cow per day, pushing total daily production from 775 liters to 2,480 liters, especially during the dry season when the farmers are using silage; part of efforts to adopt climate-smart dairy practices under the Lishe Bora na Mama Silage project.

The project is funded by Dow and implemented by Pioneer Child Development Programme in partnership with ChildFund.
