When the county government of Nyeri invested Sh23 million in the purchase of additional vehicles and motorbikes to enhance the mobility of extension officers, there was the hope of increased agricultural production in the region.

The project governor Mutahi Kagwe launched in May 2018 saw his government buy more cars and motorbikes that were to be distributed to extension officers with a view of making their work of being intermediaries between research and farmers much easier.
