Ever smelled food aroma like pilau in the middle of a farm? That’s what happened to me while leading a farm audit for organic certification. As I moved between blocks a sweet aroma filled the air. I asked the food safety team, “Who’s cooking pilau?” They laughed, “Watu wa balaa, mtatuonyesha mambo
“I eat soil like an ant.” That’s what a farmer once said on a vernacular radio station.
At first, it made me pause.But the more I thought about it, the more it made sense. He wasn’t being poetic. He was being profoundly honest The soil feeds him. It has educated his children.
This week, I had the pleasure of traveling to the breathtaking Laikipia County, where I experienced firsthand the innovative approaches being embraced for sustainable agriculture.
