Kenya’s agricultural sector requires immediate solutions to ongoing challenges, according to officials. Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe highlighted the sector’s potential while emphasizing the need for practical application of research. The call to action came during the opening of the second KALRO Scientific Conference and Innovation Expo 2026, where Principal Secretary Dr. Paul Kipronoh Ronoh delivered Kagwe’s speech. Experts are advocating for the translation of agricultural research into tangible, farm-level solutions. This aims to improve productivity and address critical issues faced by Kenyan farmers. The conference serves as a platform to showcase innovations and foster collaboration between researchers and agricultural stakeholders.
