Kenya and Poland have signed a Ksh10.63 billion financing deal to boost the livestock value chain through Phase II of the Livestock Value Chain Support Project. The agreement, signed by Kenya's National Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi and Poland's Undersecretary of State at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Wojciech Zajączkowski, aims to increase productivity and incomes among dairy farmers and pastoralist communities.
The financing will support various aspects of the livestock value chain, including animal breeding, feed and fodder, milk cooling, value addition, laboratory capacity, technology transfer, and skills development. By 2028, the project aims to achieve a 30% increase in household incomes among targeted dairy farming and pastoralist communities, with a focus on improving milk handling, processing, and commercialisation.
