🟠Coffee farmers get four marketing channels under new law

Kenya’s coffee sector is entering a new phase under the Coffee Act 2026, with farmers set to have more options in how they market their produce as the government seeks to improve returns and restore coffee’s position as a major cash crop.

The new law provides for four avenues through which Kenyan coffee can be sold, potentially giving growers greater flexibility beyond the traditional auction system at the Nairobi Coffee Exchange.

🟠Smart agriculture must move from hotels to village schools

Smart agriculture is the use of simple technology, data and better farming methods to produce more food with less water, fewer chemicals and lower cost.

It means using a soil moisture sensor to know when to irrigate instead of guessing.

🟠Tea farmers need diversification and louder advocacy

Ask me, a small-scale farmer. When the Kenya Tea Development Agency (KTDA) announced this year's tea bonus, I was not surprised by the low earnings rates.

Rukuriri paid Ksh50, Imenti Ksh48, Gathuthi Ksh47.50, Mungania Ksh43.80 and Kionyo Ksh36, with Kaptumo at the bottom with Ksh12.50. But as a farmer, I was deeply troubled.

I thought the corporate world had taught me stress management. Board meetings, targets, retrenchments, I thought I had seen it all. Farming has taught me otherwise.

Farming is not just business. It is a compulsory unit in stress management, character development and humility.

🟠Chondo weaving restores a spark for Nyeri senior citizens

For many elderly individuals in the country, and especially in rural areas and informal settlements, retirement boredom, isolation and the daily monotony that often accompanies ageing have become part of life.

As the world marked the International Day of Older Persons on October 1, most senior citizens across the country were still grappling with a myriad of challenges. Some of these can be tackled through deliberate interventions by the elders themselves, support groups, nongovernmental organisations and the government.

At Chinga village in Othaya constituency, Nyeri County, elders have identified weaving chondos as the antidote to most of the challenges they face in their daily lives.
