While some farmers have written off coffee and even uprooted it, one man is making a kill from the famous black gold of East Africa. Mr Henry Kinyua has over 5,000 coffee trees at his farm in Mariene, in Meru Central.
“I started this in 2006 and I have no regrets. What I get from this crop sustains my family and I. Coffee is more profitable than other crops,” he says.
