The Kitui County booth at the ongoing 9th Devolution Conference in Homa Bay is turning heads and stealing hearts.


Part of the reason is the impressive innovations in food value chain, something that has been dazzling visitors. 


The cutting edge food value chain addition, which includes solar-dried mangoes flakes/crisps to roasted millet flour and the tasty sunflower 🌻  cooking oil, is all indicative of the  agribusiness solutions that put farmers at the center of wealth creation and food security.


Crowds have kept flocking the fashionable booth, impressed by how Kitui is not only producing food but adding value that boosts incomes, creates jobs and fights hunger. 



"We are on the path to making Kitui food secure. Attaining food security is part of Governor Malombe's core agendas for the county residents," emphasized Agriculture county minister Mbaya Kimwele.


His Chief Officer for Agriculture Gladys Kivoto advised Kitui farmers to embrace value addition which ensures zero waste in food production as well as for income generation.


The two officers revealed that sunflower farming has become a lucrative and reliable venture for local farmers.


"Sunflower oil is in high demand and fetches good money. We are training our farmers and supporting them in sunflower farming as well as the entire value chain," Waziri Kimwele told the media during the ongoing 9th devolution conference in Homabay County.
