Vihiga is one of the smallest counties in Kenya, a factor that has often led many to assume that its agricultural productivity would remain low due to limited land resources.
However, in recent years, the county has made significant strides towards achieving food security and agricultural self-sufficiency.
Through partnership between the county government and development partners, lack of bigger agricultural land is no longer an obstacle to agricultural productivity as majority of the farmers are maximising the land use through mixed farming, climate-smart agriculture and participation in cooperatives that promote value addition and commercialisation of farm produce.
One farmer who embodies this transformation is Zinath Deen.
