KAKAMEGA: A survey commissioned by the Kakamega County Government shows the county produces slightly more than 35 million eggs every year, compared to an annual demand of 170 million eggs.
The task force's report revealed the county imports eggs and chickens from as far as Central Kenya and neighbouring counties such as Uasin Gishu and Nandi, to meet its demand for chicken meat; which is a cherished delicacy in the area.
