As Kenya's food-producing regions prepare for another farming season, attention has turned to the mechanics who keep tractors, harvesters, trucks and other machinery running, ensuring farm activities and the movement of produce are not disrupted.
More than 100 mechanics from across the North Rift gathered in Eldoret on Saturday for the second annual Mechanics Wellness Day, where the profession's contribution to Kenya's transport, agricultural and industrial sectors took centre stage.
In the North Rift, one of Kenya's breadbaskets, tractors, harvesters and heavy commercial vehicles play a vital role in planting, harvesting and transporting produce to markets across the country.
