Support indigenous farmers for sustainable, safe food production, Ilchamus leaders say

TURIN, ITALY: The Kenyan government has been urged to protect indigenous farmers from the vagaries of commercial farming which might compromise quality and safety of food and culture.

Speaking on the sidelines of the Salone del Gusto and Terra Madre Conference in Turin Italy, Baringo County's Ilchamus Ward MCA Wesley Lekakimon said that learning from the Italian experience where different countries are showcasing their food culture, Kenya needs to have national fares on food so that even Kenyans themselves can learn about what their own countrymen are producing and eating.
