Food production on the rise as fertiliser use increases

NAIROBI, KENYA: The perpetual food shortage facing millions of Kenyans may soon be a thing of the past following the increased usage of quality fertilisers by farmers.

Shem Odhiambo, the Country Director of Export Trading Group (ETG), a multinational firm dealing with farm inputs, says the development has been precipitated by increased awareness on the timing, quantity, right type and usage of the critical farming ingredient.
