GMO And Smallholder Farmers

There are more than 7.5 million smallholder farmers in Kenya, producing about 75 percent of the country’s total Agriculture output. The government of Kenya lifted the ban to import and distribute GMO seeds in a bid to fight the current food shortage in the country. Smallholder farmers see the move as a threat to the environment and their Agri – Production. Smallholder farmers at Karen Organic Market share their grievances and what GMOs really mean to their production.
