Kenyan Agricultural Sector Sees New Funding, Products, and Policy Advocacy - November 2025
The Kenya Development Corporation (KDC) has injected Sh500 million into Githunguri Dairy Cooperative Society to boost financing for MSMEs under the World Bank-backed SAFER Programme. This initiative aims to expand access to long-term, affordable credit. In a separate development, Corteva Agriscience Kenya has launched Verpixo® 100 SC, a new fungicide based on Adavelt™ technology, to support the floriculture sector. The product is designed to help rose growers combat powdery mildew and botrytis, diseases that threaten export-bound flowers. Meanwhile, players in Kenya's agricultural sector are advocating for a 10-year stable tax framework, citing that inconsistent fiscal policies hinder competitiveness and long-term investment.
