Food security

The people of Nyanza have been suffering alot due to food, insecurity. The soils are rocky and the rains and not sufficient  for maize. Catholic relief services (CRS) in collaboration with KARI Kakamega decided to supply the communities with new tupes of cassava cuttings that they would help the farmers plant demonstrating to them how it is done.
One farmer would plant and after 6 months, when the cassava is ready for harvesting, he would sell the cuttings to other farmers at a cost. This was to help in food security as well as income generation to better the lives of the people around that community.
