Kenya: Grain and Feed Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

FAS/Nairobi forecasts a marginal increase in corn production in Kenya in the Marketing Year (MY) 2016/2017 because of Government of Kenya (GOK) and county governments’ support to farmers. Wheat production will remain flat as farmers respond to lower prices. The continued subdivision of large wheat farm makes wheat farming increasingly unviable. Rice production is forecast to record a modest increase. Consumption of the commodities will continue to outstrip production, leading to imports.
