Background
• Agriculture:
– Is the mainstay of Kenya’s economy
– 80% of the rural population depends on it
– Contributes 26% of GDP
– Accounts for 18% of formal employment.
• Kenya’s population: 36 million; Growth rate - 2.7% p.a.
• Rice in Kenya:
– 3rd most important cereal after maize and wheat.
– 80% Irrigated; 20% rain fed
– Production 45,000 - 80,000 MT/ year
– Per capita consumption - 8kg/person/year.
– Total Consumption is 300,000 metric tons.
– Annual Consumption increasing at 12%
– Deficit met through imports.
NRDS Challenges and Opportunities
• Challenges:
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Unfavorable land tenure system
Labor scarcity due to urban migration
Unfavorable trans-boundary trade practices
Liberalization of rice irrigation schemes resulting in
poor rice management practices
High costs of inputs and machinery
Poor access to credit
Uncoordinated marketing
Low skills/knowledge on rice crop management
• Opportunities:
– Potential for 540,000 Ha Irrigated rice and 1.0 M Ha.
Rain-fed rice.
– Strong agricultural research and extension systems
– Well established seed production and certification
system.
Related policies
• No Rice policy
• Rice Production has been supported by policy
documents such as:
• Agriculture Sector Development Strategy
(ASDS),
