At least 837 smallholder farmers from Taita Taveta County were in attendance together with USAID-KAVES sub-contractors, County Government and 41 exhibitors (Input suppliers, financial institutions, private companies, government bodies, fabricators and regulators). Sales worth USD 490.19 (Ksh. 50,000) from inputs and various products were realized and 20 bank accounts opened.  

Speaking during the trade fair, the USAID KAVES Technical Director Staples and Food Crops- Mr. George Odingo mentioned that “Smallholder farmers need to change from traditional farming practices to utilization of modern farming technologies such as tractors, hand ploughing equipment, maize shellers among others in order to increase productivity. Additionally, farmers need to embrace drought tolerant crops including green grams to minimize crop loss.”
