    Well done young man, this channel should have more subscribers, it is very educational. My only advice or observation as in relation to the other farmers that has been featured, they never say which area they are based. In this case the young man said he was in Nyeri which is rare. By giving us those details we are able get a better understanding. Nonetheless, I love the program and I live abroad and hoping to come and farm one of this day God willing. Keep up the good work.

    Impressive. I would have wanted to know more about the Robbi app. Also the production part of it. Thanks for sharing your story. Garlic takes at least 10 months to mature so in a year, all factors constant you can make kshs 1.2 million from one acre farm. However the question is how quickly can you sell six tonnes of garlic. Is there sufficient market for such scale of production?

      Check out The Soil Food Web. You will see that by following nature’s pattern you can use less chemicals, less work, less fertilizer. Plants and living soil work together in an amazing way. Different plant families work together. Fungi, microbes and bacteria exchange nutrients and water for the benefit of the whole system. Plants growing in a system that is fully functioning as nature planned are unpalatable to insects and diseases. There are many sources for learning these principles on UA-cam. Best, you will have several varieties and be able to sell something even if one crop fails. See “Carbonomics” as an introduction. Best of good outcomes to you!
