Horticultural farmers in Kibiri Ward, Homa Bay County, have received generators to boost irrigation and combat the effects of climate change.

Karachuonyo constituency, where Kibiri Ward is located, is a semi-arid area.

Weather conditions in the area hardly support crop production unless during rainy seasons. However, the area receives reliable rainfall for one season of about three months in a year.
