The Kenyan government plans to declare Galana Kulalu a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) to boost private sector involvement in agriculture and ensure food security.

• Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe announced that the SEZ status will offer robust investment incentives, attracting global agribusiness players.
• The government will expand its Land Commercialisation Initiative (LCI) to include idle land in counties, prison farms, and other government institutions.
• A One-Stop LCI Office has been established to streamline approval processes, allowing investors to acquire land for agricultural ventures within one month.
