Dairy products and impact of Dairy Marketing in Kenya

The marketing of Dairy products is regulated by Dairy industry act under the law of Kenya; Kenya dairy board is responsible of organizing, regulating and developing production efficiency. The Board has powers of in the regulation of Dairy Marketing system. The Board neglected its duty and left it in the hands of Kenya cooperative creameries limited. Implementation of marketing liberalization has been of much benefit and it has facilitated automatic adjustments of price in order to respond to competition in the market, the market changes are brought about by supply and demand. Marketing liberalization has been working to find ways of stabilizing consumption and production and this will be of much benefit to the entire society. The marketing liberalization passed the policy statement that any company or party interested in starting Dairy processing or marketing of Dairy products can be licensed as long as the party or the company has kept the rules of the required hygienic standards.

In 1983 the Government licensed two Dairy suppliers who were small scale, the licensed cooperative unions were Meru central farmers and Kitinda farmers, they were allowed to produce process and distribute their dairy products to their members. Before this policy was passed any small scale dairy farmer who wanted to process dairy products had to be a member of the Kenya Cooperative creameries (KCC), this made the KCC to operate as a monopoly in the industry of Dairy. Most of the milk in the market is from the small scale farmers. The farmers come together and form cooperative in order to supply the collected milk to the marketing outlets that finally process the milk in large scale and market it to the final consumer. Kenya dairy cooperative has registered over 100 small scale societies but only 70% of these societies are active. There are 200 cooperatives which serve the dairy by milk collection, bulking the milk and finally selling it to the surrounding areas or taking it to processing plants. Some of these cooperatives are Bungoma and Meru.

The government keeps encouraging the farmers who are not satisfied by the services of KCC to start their own processing facilities and register it under the Rural Dairy Development. This will give them good returns and open wide market for their milk. For milk to reach the processing facility there must be milk coolers, without the coolers then the milk goes bad before reaching the processing plant. Milk production has shown peaks in supply during rainfall season when the cows are grazing well and grazing of the cows is cheap. During high supply the markets are usually saturated with milk, the local milk suppliers’ start rejecting milk supply and also Kenya Cooperative Society reject it during this period. This has led to a lot of wastage and as a result the KCC has competitors who are in the milk industry in or order to stabilize demand even during peak periods, the industry has the KCC and the non KCC and also the private sector.

Milk is perishable in nature and the appropriate tools should be used in the collection and in the processing. The final products of milk are; cheese, cream, butter, ghee, mala, ultra heat treated milk, yoghurt and skim milk powder.

How To Increase Production In Chicken Farming In Kenya

Chicken farming has become a very common type of farming in Kenya. The demand for the products of this farming is high in Kenya and for export purposes. A smart investor in Kenya would better take advantage of the high demand to venture into quail farming, broilers farming or into chicken farming. There are however, various aspects that farmers in Kenya should know to boost their products and success.

During cold seasons, chicken are usually adversely affected and need to be given more attention. Cold seasons in Kenya are well known and could be predicted. Farmers, therefore need to be prepared well before the cold season kicks in. The cold and darkness can certainly reduce egg production in Kenya.

The Research on farming in Kenya shows that chickens lay best in cases where they are well exposed when they receive about fifteen hours of light daily. Thus, proper lighting is very important for better production of eggs. Farmers in Kenya should make sure their farming houses are well lit to increase the production of eggs. Most chicken start producing eggs 6-7 weeks after hatching.

Farmers in Kenya should ensure that the chicken get access to nutritious feed, adequate housing, and access to fresh clean water are important to the health of your flock. Ensuring that there is good management and sanitation practices are important in making the farming successful. This also reduces diseases associated with chickens. Proper ventilation in the brooder and coop will reduce moisture and disease organisms. The wet litter and wastes should be removed as soon as they form to keep the house clean and dry. This will make the chicken comfortable, and the yields will be higher.

The farmers should ensure that the chicken house, where they lay eggs, the nests are clean and free from pesticides. The farmers should ensure that the nests and the house are cleaned every week to avoid the spread of diseases.  The temperature where the chicken are, should be 90 to 95 degrees for the first week, after they are hatched then the farmer should reduce the temperature by 5 degrees per week until you get to 70 degrees. The chicken should not need any more heat.

How To Improve Coffee Farming In Kenya

Imagine sipping a cup of coffee that you are certain is truly authentic and unadulterated Kenyan coffee. Satisfying isn’t it? But how many Kenyans lavish this? Kenyan coffee is one of the highest quality coffee in the world. Coffee in Kenya is extraordinarily rich in acidity and flavour, full body and deep in sensual aroma and hints of chocolate, floral and citrus undertones. It is not just about the taste of the Kenyan coffee. According to a study conducted by researchers at Lund University in Sweden two cups of coffee a day could stop breast cancer recurring in recovering patients.

The irony is Kenyans are consuming international brands of coffee and stocking them in the supermarkets in Kenya and retail outlets and yet we have the best coffee with us in Kenya.

According to the Coffee Board Of Kenya (the industry facilitator, charged with the responsibility of regulation and the promotion of coffee) the reason why our domestic market in Kenya is small, is that almost all our coffee is produced for export. This is because we want to increase our foreign exchange and improve the economy of Kenya.

However rational this sounds, it might not be the only way forward. We can still increase our coffee domestic consumption in Kenya to the extent that our economy is improved, and the individual farmers are made better off. It is disheartening that the farmer in Kenya is the key stakeholder, and yet he is at the short end of the stick. This has been substantiated by mass uprooting of coffee crop in various parts of the country. When we grow, roast, package and consume our coffee in-house we can alleviate, if not eliminate this great problem in Kenya. It is also unfortunate that we export our unprocessed beans and then import international brands.

Another contributing factor is that Kenya has not come up with a solid brand that sets us apart. We need a mark of identification such that anyone drinking the coffee domestically or internationally will know that he is drinking Kenyan coffee. Think Columbian coffee and the brand, Juan Valdez effortlessly comes.

Branding of the coffee in Kenya is set to bring myriads of benefits not only to the stakeholders but also to other players in the value chain and the country at large. The mark will create value addition to the products in Kenya and bring about the buzz of having authentic Kenyan coffee. This will in turn boost sales of coffee in Kenya.

Another reason why Kenyans opt to consume other beverages than coffee in Kenya is the cost. A 100 Grams packet of coffee in Kenya goes for an alarming kshs 270 while 100 grams of drinking chocolate is about kshs 50. With the average Kenyan who lives on a dollar a day it is economical to forego the drink.

However, coffee is still considered as a lifestyle drink particularly by the youth who have a high disposable income in Kenya. They frequent coffee shops like Java, Dorman’s and Art Café in Nairobi, Kenya whose target market is the upper class, tourists and expatriates. It is the absence of players in the industries in Kenya that make the prices elitist. People need to open up coffee shops since there’s a niche in the domestic markets within Kenya.

It is expected due to market forces of demand and supply of coffee in Kenya, when domestic supply increases the prices will go down so in time the prices will be affordable. The coffee farmer in Kenya who is the main stakeholder will also reap greater benefits when this is done.

In the long run, all systems in place, there is expected to be remarkable growth in coffee industry in Kenya, and we will be one step closer to achieving our vision 2030.

How To Improve Quail Products Market In Kenya; Is Quail Keeping In Kenya Good Business?

Quail rearing in Kenya is on everyone’s mouth in Kenya after some Kenya TV stations highlighted the growing quail craze in Kenya. Late last year, most people in Kenya had come to learn of the possibility of rearing the quail bird in Kenya, and of the fast high returns of quail keepers in Kenya. Farmers in Kenya abandoned their earlier ventures to rear quails birds in Kenya. Some even left their well paying jobs in Kenya to engage in the quail million shilling venture. The quail rearing business in Kenya did provide good returns with a single quail egg in Kenya costing Ksh 120 and a full grown laying quail bird costing Ksh 1,200 in Kenya.

However, the quail market in Kenya seems to have slowed down and there are way more quail sellers in Kenya than quail buyers in Kenya. Quail keepers in Kenya do not seem to be earning as much as before and people are even claiming quail farming is a pyramid scheme in Kenya.The real problem with the quail business in Kenya, however, is that supply of quail products in Kenya has out stripped demand of quail products by far. There are steps that need to be taken by quail farmers in Kenya to help in the marketing of quails meat and quail eggs in Kenya. Some of these steps that can improve quail business in Kenya are;

Creating awareness to all Kenyans about Quails in Kenya

Quail keeping and consumption in Kenya is a relatively new thing and most people in Kenya only know it because of the amount of money people in Kenya claim to be making out of quail farming in Kenya. If you gave some people quail eggs in Kenya, they would claim they are snake eggs in Kenya, as they have not seen them before. The masses in Kenya need to be informed of the benefits accrued by consuming quail eggs and quail meat in Kenya. This could be done by giving free samples to your neighbors, workmates and relatives in Kenya and then encouraging them to buy quail products from you.

Lowering the prices of quail products in Kenya

The prices of quails and quail eggs in Kenya need to come down. This might appear counterproductive but it is the only way to go in Kenya. You as a farmer of quails in Kenya cannot expect a normal person in Kenya to buy a tiny quail egg for Ksh 100 in Kenya. It is unreasonable and makes quail and quail products in Kenya seem a reserve of only those wishing to rear them in Kenya. The pioneer keepers of quail in Kenya used to sell their eggs in their local areas for Ksh 20 only. When people learnt of how easy it is to rear quails in Kenya, and how fast quails start laying eggs in Kenya coupled with the numerous health benefits of quails in Kenya, a lot of people rushed to rear quails in Kenya. More people demanded quail chicks in Kenya, while the supply for fertilized quail eggs in Kenya to hatch was low in Kenya. Automatically, this caused the prices of all quail products in Kenya to shoot up to unbelievable levels in Kenya. More and more people in Kenya got into the quail business on seeing the insane prices quails and quail eggs were fetching in Kenya. The supply of quail eggs and quail products in Kenya has thus increased and demand is not as high as almost everyone who wanted to rear quails in Kenya has their quail chicks in Kenya.

It is time to create a quail market in Kenya for quail products for consumption and this can only be done if the prices of quails in Kenya are lowered to a level where everyone can afford them. Quails are easy to keep in Kenya and quail rearing in Kenya does not consume much money. It is therefore possible to sell quail eggs in Kenya for as low as Ksh 10 and still make profits in Kenya. The quail farmers should therefore get to reseaonable prices of quail eggs in Kenya, for more people to afford.

Forming Quail Farmers Groups in Kenya

Farmers rearing quails in Kenya can come together and form quail farmers groups in Kenya in order to learn from each other and to market quail products in Kenya together. Such quail farmers groups/chamaas in Kenya can help to eliminate middlemen from the quail business in Kenya as well as setting a reasonable standard price for quails and quail eggs in Kenya. A quail farmers group in Kenya can also involve itself in locating overseas quail markets as production of quails and quail eggs will continue to increase in Kenya. If quail farmers in Kenya employ these ideas in their quail rearing business in Kenya, they are bound to reap handsome returns from their investments in quail in Kenya.

How To Start A Quail Rearing Business In Kenya

Almost everyone in Kenya has heard about the new craze farming that is quail rearing in Kenya. Some have even abandoned white collar jobs in Kenya to enter into the said million shillings business of quail farming in Kenya. So what exactly is Quail farming in Kenya all about?

Quails in Kenya are small birds that weigh 200g at most when mature. Quails in Kenya are kept for their meat as well as eggs products. Quails have long been a delicacy in Asia and the developed world, with some scientists advocating for their declaration as super foods because of the numerous Quail health benefits. Among the health benefits quail birds in Kenya are associated with, there is Quail products in Kenya relieve of allergies, Quails cure asthma in Kenya, Quails products improve the CD4 count of Hiv patients in Kenya amongst many other benefits.

The quail business in Kenya has quickly caught up due to the quick returns and high prices reducing the payback period of your investment in Kenya. Quails in Kenya eat about a fifth of what chickens in Kenya eat and quails start laying eggs at a shocking fast period of six to eight weeks and continue to lay for the first two years. Due to quails\’ wild nature, there are almost no known illnesses affecting quails in Kenya, and quails help to boost immunity in Kenya. Quail farming in Kenya can be done in a small space due to their small size. A space of about five square feet can accommodate 50 quail birds in Kenya. This answers the crucial question of how much space you need to keep quails in Kenya.

To start a quail keeping business in Kenya, you first need to have a quail farming licence in Kenya which is obtained from the Kenya Wildlife Services at a small fee of Ksh 500. This is because quail birds in Kenya are wild birds. After that, you need to get a quail structure for your birds. A house for the quail birds in Kenya can be easily built with locally available materials. The quail birds shelter in Kenya needs to be a totally enclosed area since quail birds can actually fly away. The quail birds structure in Kenya can be built with wood, wire mesh or even iron sheets. Once you have the structure ready, it is time to purchase quail birds in Kenya.

One day old quail bird in Kenya is going for around Ksh 250 and a two week old Quail bird chick in Kenya costs Ksh 400. The difference in price of one day old quail bird and a two week quail bird chick in Kenya is due to the fact that a two week old quail bird chick is easier to take care of, and mortality rates are zero and very minimal as compared to the one day quail chick which needs a lot of care. The prices of quail chicks in Kenya are however slowly coming down, due to the large number of quail farmers in Kenya engaging in production of eggs and breeding of quails. Alternatively, you can purchase fertilized quail eggs in Kenya from a trusted quail farmer with a good hatching rate. The fertilized quail eggs in Kenya should then be taken to a quail breeder in Kenya for incubation of the fertilized eggs at a cost of Ksh 20 to Ksh 50 per quail egg. Fertilized quail eggs in Kenya currently cost Ksh 40 to Ksh 50, a price which has fluctuated from Ksh 80 to Ksh 100. The cheaper option of starting to keep quails in Kenya is the incubation of the fertilized eggs or buying incubated fertilized quail eggs in Kenya.

Quail chicks in Kenya feed on chick marsh for starters, then growers marsh when older and finally layers marsh when they start laying. The type of food to give quail birds in Kenya depends on how old the quails are. You can feed quail birds in Kenya once a day as they do not eat much unlike other domestic fowls in Kenya. Quail birds in Kenya need water regularly enough for the whole day. It is important to clean the quail structure in Kenya to ensure quails health in Kenya is good and for quail bird buyers in Kenya who visit to find your premises clean. Ensure to keep the quail housing area away from quail predators in Kenya such as cats and dogs.

You are now good to go and wait for your quails to start laying in Kenya. You can sell your quail eggs in Kenya to quail breeders in Kenya for Ksh 40 if fertilised and Ksh 20 for consumption. There are organisations in Kenya that have formed to help search for an export market for quail products from Kenya. Many Kenyans are also becoming knowledgeable of the benefits of quail products in Kenya, and are starting to consume them. I personally can vouch for the quail products in Kenya in treatment of allergies and digestion problems as I have experienced this personally. Alternatively, you can purchase an egg incubator in Kenya and breed quails in Kenya for those who want to start keeping them which is a more lucrative option.

People are claiming that the quail business in Kenya is a pyramid scheme but this is not so. The exorbitant prices being charged for quail products in Kenya are unreasonable and have been due to a high demand for quails in Kenya that has outstripped supply of quail products in Kenya, due to the high number of people who rushed to rear the quail birds in Kenya. The quail market in Kenya is now stabilizing and the quail products in Kenya are going to be more affordable for the common Kenyan. Some may claim that the quail market in Kenya is flooded, but it is not. A chicken egg in Kenya costs Ksh 10 and chicken farmers in Kenya still make profits. This is after the chicken in Kenya eating five times more than a quail in Kenya and as well as requiring chicken vaccines and medicines in Kenya for the rampant chicken diseases in Kenya. Considering the amount of work and feed that a quail bird in Kenya needs for rearing, at Ksh 5 quail eggs cost in Kenya, a quail farmer in Kenya will still make profits. The key to succeeding in quail farming in Kenya is to take advantage of the lower prices of quail materials in Kenya and apply economies of scale by rearing a a large number of quails in Kenya.

Quail eggs and quail meat in Kenya are also very delicious and have medicinal benefits so the farmer will have an addition to his or her diet. So go ahead and keep your quails in Kenya, and ignore the naysayers.

Importance Of Studying Land Tenure System In Kenya

Land tenure is the relationship of people or groups interacting in a society with respect to land. It is an aspect that has varied definitions but is important in ensuring that the relationship of people with concern to land is improved for their benefit.

Studies on land tenure are important in helping demystify gender issues concerning the ownership of land by mostly the women in Kenya. Girls nowadays are allowed to own land. This was not the case however in the recent past where only men had the right to own land.

Awareness on the various forms of land ownership is also created to the individuals. Land in Kenya can be owned in 3 different ways; private ownership where land is owned by a person o a single family, communal land is owned by people of a common origin. This information about land helps people use the land conservatively

The study of land tenure in Kenya is also crucial for ensuring that instances of starvation are solved by promoting food security. Privately owned land allows owners acquire knowledge and build capacity in  to adapt as  well as implement new production methods which in turn contribute to a food secure society. The use of land appropriately allows for enough utilization of resources within any given community and therefore.  Through understanding the various farming techniques, members of a community are able to provide sufficient food to ensure that poverty is dealt with.

The study of land tenure is also crucial to help prevent clashes between communities and within the same community too. This is achieved by enlightening the members to understand the rights that they each have over land. This is can be achieved within the framework of the community such as the family, the clan and community at a large. It is therefore important to create understanding of land rights so as to promote peace.

The study helps promote rural development.  The development is done in a sustainable way so as to be able to maintain the current pressure but still ensure that the ability for the future generation to sustain itself are also considered. Land tenure thereby promotes sustainable development in rural areas.

Land tenure is crucial in also maintaining the conservation of wildlife and the forests. By ensuring that the land is fenced from destruction by members of the community, by limiting the access to the forests, the wildlife and forests are conserved.

How Farmers Prune Plants In Kenya

Pruning has for a longtime been one of the best ways of controlling the spread of infections such as fungus to plants. The method involves removing damaged branches in plants to encourage new growth and allow several other steps to be created from the tree. It is therefore important that the process be done in a more careful and proper manner. The following simple steps can help Kenyan farmers know how to prune their plants.

Thinning Out thick branches

The major problem attributed to the fact is that healthy trees need a lot of fresh air circulation around them .Most plants that have branches close to one another make it hard and encourage the growth of fungus and spread of various infections caused by insects to the plant. Farmers should regularly check for thick branches and go ahead to eradicate them.

Little Pruning Should Be Done

The main intention of carrying out this practice is to help the tree have little number of cuts. It has been noted that many cuts in a tree are possible ways of attracting insects to come and invade the place hence destroying and infecting the plant with fungus. Farmers should never remove more than 25percent of the branches of a tree plant. Pruning should only be done at one season per year. It is not healthy to prune a plant more than two consecutive seasons.

Prune Branches that Act as Obstructions

Some branches of a tree make it hard to encourage convenience on part of the worker. It is observed many tall branches often distract telephone wires and can lead to breakdown of communication. The branches also cause annoyance to the farmers and make them suffer a lot in trying to carry out farm activities.

Asses the Tree Carefully

A farmer should take time to look at the tree and imagine of how it will appear some minutes after it is pruned. The practice is good as it gives the farmer better ways of ensuring that the tree is well pruned.
