When one thinks of oranges in Mahiga village, Kieni Constituency, one man comes to mind. Cyrpriano Mugo has been growing oranges in his five-acre farm since 1980 and it has been a long and arduous journey to keep the venture alive.
“When my wife and I first moved to this piece of land, we noticed everyone was planting traditional crops such as bananas, sweet potatoes, sugarcane, cabbages, onions and tomatoes,” Mugo says.
