Government Cuts Subsidised Fertiliser to KSh 2,000 - August 2026

The Kenyan government has announced a significant reduction in the price of subsidised fertiliser to KSh 2,000 and introduced a subsidy for maize seed to ease the financial burden on farmers. The National Biosafety Authority is implementing measures to expedite the approval of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) and streamline regulatory processes to enhance food security. Additionally, the government is launching an investigation into widespread tea scale fraud, vowing to take decisive action against those deliberately short-changing farmers to restore fairness and transparency in the tea sector.
