Kirinyaga farmers have turned to goldfish farming, a lucrative and less time-consuming farming method with higher returns than traditional aquaculture.

Michael Chomba a farmer, said such farming doesn't need a lot of engagement. "At the moment, ornamental fish have a ready market, which is the main challenge for farmers who take up aquaculture," he said.
