About 15 kilometres from Meru town along Meru-Marimba-Chogoria road, you will find mixed farming being practiced at a village known as Kasarani, by an elderly farmer.
The 10-acre farm is owned by 79-year-old Fredrick Karani. When the Kilimo Pesa team arrived at the farm, it found Karani tendering to his diary goats. But his pride is the avocado trees which last year gave him a gross income of Sh1 million.
