NAIROBI: The country is likely to face a food shortage in the coming months, according to a new report.
Tegemeo Institute of Agricultural Policy and Development attributes the situation to delayed planting of maize in the South Rift region. "The early harvest that usually comes from the region cannot be relied upon until August since the planting season began later than usual due to the delayed onset of rains," said Tegemeo Senior Research Assistant Institute Joseph Opiyo.
