Farming for the Future: Resilient and Sustainable Solutions
In response to climate challenges, SCR Kenya empowers farmers with knowledge and tools to practice climate-smart agriculture, ensuring food security while protecting ecosystems.
Our Climate-Smart Agriculture programs include:
- Training farmers in conservation agriculture and use of drought-resistant crops like finger millet and green grams.
- Promotion of low-water kitchen gardens for continuous household food supply.
- Community tree planting initiatives with indigenous and fast-growing species to restore degraded lands.
- Promotion of energy-saving technologies such as fuel-efficient cookstoves.
- Provision of improved goat and plant breeds for food security and economic support
- Vocational training on goat farming, poultry farming and vegetable farming.
Challenges We Address
Climate risks affecting communities include:
- Erratic rainfall patterns and prolonged droughts reducing food production.
- Soil erosion and environmental degradation worsening food insecurity.
- Dependence on traditional unsustainable farming methods.
