Farmers Caught Between Drought and El Niño Flood Threat as Weather Turns Uncertain - September 2026

Kenyan farmers are facing a dual threat of prolonged drought conditions, which have severely impacted harvests, and the impending risk of destructive El Niño-induced floods. Rising water levels at Lake Baringo have prompted an urgent relocation of crocodiles by the Kenya Wildlife Service, with the encroaching waters forcing these reptiles out of their natural habitat into areas frequented by local communities. The Baringo region is facing a concerning decline in fish populations in Lake Baringo, prompting immediate action from local fishermen and stakeholders.
