As farmers embrace technology to boost their ventures, a pig farmer in Meru has gone a notch higher and embraced a software app that helps her run the pig farm.

The farm’s owner, Ann Kinya, says thanks to the mobile app nothing at her pig farm in Ruiri, Buuri Sub County in Meru County which houses more than 400 pigs, is done manually.
