  • 3 Agriculture in Kenya: Large- Versus Small-Scale Farming
    3 Agriculture in Kenya: Large- versus Small-Scale Farming Large-scale farming and structural change Before we embark on a chronological account of the changes and developments in Kenya's agriculture it would be helpful to look at the structural changes brought about by the setting up of large­ scale agricultural estates by European settlers. The history of development or lack of development in the rural areas of Kenya has been largely determined by the imposition of this type of farm­ ing on the country. Did the kind of agriculture brought by the settlers lead to development? The following sections will show that after forty difficult years it brought about prosperity within the European-settled areas, but that it was directly responsible for (a) holding back agricultural development in other areas, (b) the poli­ tical explosion in the 1950s, (c) creating the 'peasant capitalist' from the late 1950s and finally (d) the gross underdevelopment in the areas of the nomadic pastoralists. First let us examine the reasons why this large-scale farming was able to succeed. Up to the mid-1950s the settlers' success was un­ doubtedly at the expense of the African farmers. A large proportion of the land and labour force, capital, administration, communi­ cations and marketing were directed by the colonial authorities with a favourable bias towards the settler section of production. The mechanics of this channeling of resources will be discussed in other chapters. Initially and up to the mid-1950s the settler and peasant pro­ ducers were in competition for the above resources. It was essen­ tially a competition between a few large estates and very many small peasant plots to see which could produce the most cheaply.

  • Year 3- Kenya
    Year 3- Kenya Term: Autumn 2 Subject focus: Geography and Art Non-Fiction: Report Fiction: Narrative Recount Concepts Geography Art People and Places/Global Citizenship Inspiration/Creativity/Critique Children build on their understanding of the continent of Africa which was explored in Year 1 to now dive deeper into a focussed country. Children can use what they have learn to make comparisons between the different countries explored in Amazing Africa, especially Nigeria, with what they will learn about Kenya. With a large number of West African families in our school community, this topic gives children the opportunity to learn about the country where they, their family or friends descend from. Children are able to develop their geographical skills within this topic, looking at more detailed maps of Africa and the world. They are able to focus their understanding of physical and human features of Africa to one particular country. This units contributes to the children’s understanding of people and places in the world, having learnt about similar and contrasting places in previous years (Africa, Arctic and Antarctica, South America and local places). Later in the year, children will build further upon their knowledge of Africa when they look at the ancient history of the Egyptians, creating a deeper understanding of the continent through time. This topic also helps to prepare children for the topic Europe, where they will consider the effects that Europe has had on the rest of the world, including its role in the Transatlantic Slave Trade. In Year 1, the children learnt about the creative work of Ester Mahlangu- focusing on the use of colour and pattern to create a piece of art.

Economic growth is still Krobust, although below potential and initial expectations. At an estimated 4.3 percent, Kenya’s growth rate will fall short of its 2010 performance, when the economy rebounded strongly at 5.6 percent but will be higher than Kenya’s long-term average rate of 3.7 percent. The ongoing economic crisis underscores Kenya’s structural challenges, especially weak exports, which are the primary cause of Kenya’s recent macroeconomic instability, and contributor to the sharp decline in the Kenyan shilling. For 2012, the Word Bank projects a 5.0 percent growth rate, if the government is able to effectively manage the current crisis, maintain political stability in the run-up to the elections, and address the security challenges arising from the conflict with Somalia. 1. Kenya’s economic performance for Kenya’s cash crops, mainly horticulture, coffee in 2011 and tea. 1.1 An Economy under Pressure • Industrial sector growth remains driven by construction while manufacturing is lagging. The espite a number of economic challenges, Kenya construction sub-sector recorded an impressive D will still experience a satisfactory growth rate 8.1 percent growth in the first half compared of 4.3 percent in 2011. This will be higher than to a 2.2 percent growth in the same period Kenya’s long-term growth rate of 3.7 percent but still in 2010.

  • Kenya Malaria General Malaria Information: Predominantly P
    Kenya Malaria General malaria information: predominantly P. falciparum. Transmission occurs throughout the year, with extremely high transmission in most counties surrounding Lake Victoria. Some areas with low or no transmission may only be accessible by transiting areas where chemoprophylaxis is recommended. Location-specific recommendations: Chemoprophylaxis is recommended for all travelers: elevations below 2,500 m (8,200 ft), including all coastal resorts and safari itineraries; all cities and towns within these areas (including Nairobi). No preventive measures are necessary (no evidence of transmission exists): elevations above 2,500 m. Preventive measures: Travelers should observe insect precautions from dusk to dawn in areas with any level of transmission. Atovaquone-proguanil (Malarone or generic), doxycycline, mefloquine, and tafenoquine are protective in this country. G6PD testing is required prior to tafenoquine use. 34°E 37°E 40°E 43°E NUMBERED COUNTIES 5°N SOUTH Ilemi 1 - Nairobi 25 - Kakamega 2 - Kajiado SUDAN Triangle ETHIOPIA 26 - Vihiga 3 - Makueni 27 - Nandi Lokichogio 4 - Machakos 28 - Baringo " 5 - Embu 29 - Elgeyo/Marakwet Lake Sibiloi N.P. 6 - Tharaka-Nithi Turkana 30 - Uasin Gishu 7 - Meru 31 - Bungoma " 37 8 - Kirinyaga 32 - Trans Nzoia Moyale Lodwar 9 - Murang'a 33 - West Pokot " 36 El 10 - Kiambu 34 - Turkana Wak " 11 - Nyeri 35 - Samburu T u r Marsabit 12 - Laikipia k 36 - Marsabit w N.P. e Marsabit 13 - Nyandarua 37 - Mandera l " 34 14 - Nakuru 38 - Wajir 2°N m ua M 15 - Narok 39 - Isiolo UGANDA S a Wajir l Losai m " 16 - Bomet 40 - Kitui a N.P. l t 33 e 38 17 - Nyamira 41 - Tana River 35 39 18 - Kisii 42 - Garissa 32 29 SOMALIA 19 - Migori 43 - Lamu 28 Samburu N.P.

  • Prospects for a Monetary Union in the East Africa Community: Some Empirical Evidence
    Department of Economics and Finance Working Paper No. 18-04 , Guglielmo Maria Caporale, Hector Carcel Luis Gil-Alana Prospects for A Monetary Union in the East Africa Community: Some Empirical Evidence May 2018 Economics and Finance Working Paper Series Paper Working Finance and Economics http://www.brunel.ac.uk/economics PROSPECTS FOR A MONETARY UNION IN THE EAST AFRICA COMMUNITY: SOME EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE Guglielmo Maria Caporale Brunel University London Hector Carcel Bank of Lithuania Luis Gil-Alana University of Navarra May 2018 Abstract This paper examines G-PPP and business cycle synchronization in the East Africa Community with the aim of assessing the prospects for a monetary union. The univariate fractional integration analysis shows that the individual series exhibit unit roots and are highly persistent. The fractional bivariate cointegration tests (see Marinucci and Robinson, 2001) suggest that there exist bivariate fractional cointegrating relationships between the exchange rate of the Tanzanian shilling and those of the other EAC countries, and also between the exchange rates of the Rwandan franc, the Burundian franc and the Ugandan shilling. The FCVAR results (see Johansen and Nielsen, 2012) imply the existence of a single cointegrating relationship between the exchange rates of the EAC countries. On the whole, there is evidence in favour of G-PPP. In addition, there appears to be a high degree of business cycle synchronization between these economies. On both grounds, one can argue that a monetary union should be feasible.

  • Food Security in Kenya
    REPUBLIC OF KENYA MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE FOOD SECURITY IN KENYA AUGUST 2009 Romano Kiome, (PhD, CBS) Permanent Secretary Ministry of Agriculture 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 CONCEPT OF FOOD SECURITY The World Health Organization (WHO) states that Food Security is achieved “when all people, at all times have physical and economic access to adequate/sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life”. Food security therefore is not the physical availability of any single commodity; such as maize in the Kenyan context. Neither does it imply just availability but must be accessible in terms of affordability in adequate quantities, containing essential nutrients. At macro level, it implies that adequate supplies of food are available through domestic production or through imports to meet the consumption needs of all people in a country. At the micro level (household or individual), food security depends on a number of factors which are related to various forms of entitlements to income and food producing assets, as well as the links between domestic and external markets. Food security is not just a supply issue but also a function of income and purchasing power, hence its relationship to poverty. There are four dimensions of food security that determine the level at which a community is placed in relation to vulnerability to hunger; i. Food availability ii. Food accessibility iii. Stability iv. Utilization/nutrition 1 1.1.2 Food availability Food availability to the people can be through own production, purchases, Food Aid or gifts. The analysis of average food availability among a representative set of African countries reveals that in one third of African countries, the average daily caloric intake availability is below the recommended level of 2100 Kcal (Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda and Tanzania in East Africa, and Angola, Madagascar, Mozambique and Zambia in Southern Africa, Sierra Leone in West Africa).

  • The General Numismatics of Kenya
    Robert Blunt OLD AGE AND MONEY: THE GENERAL NUMISMATICS OF KENYA abstract This research report examines the relationship between promissory acts and promissory notes in Kenyan history and its popular imagination. In Jomo Kenyatta’s classic ethnography of the Kikuyu, Facing Mount Kenya, he decries the corrosive power of money to corrupt the ritual techniques used to guarantee the honesty of elders in customary legal tribunals. How- ever, at the advent of monetary independence from the East African shilling in 1966, Kenyatta seemed to have undergone something of a modification in his monetary thinking. Kenya’s new currency was emblazoned with Ken- yatta’s own image as if to suggest that he himself backed its stability and capacity to ensure social reproduction. If we are to take seriously Keith Hart’s observation that money always has two sides, heads and tails, rep- resenting both the authority of the state and a commodity with a price, what might the iconography of Kenya’s new money tell us about Kenyan notions of trust and value that were grafted onto the nation-state form in 1966? This paper argues that Kenyatta’s money attempted to suture gerontocratic authority to the quantitative value of the money form. In this respect, Ken- yatta established a political tradition in which leaders attempted to embody the logic of the general equivalent itself. Keywords: money, numismatics, gerontocracy, Kenya, Jomo Kenyatta n 2005, ‘Twenty, twenty, twenty, twenty, are cumbersome to make change for, requiring twenty’ was the ubiquitous price for many matatu drivers to actually come to a complete Iurban routes vocally broadcasted by touts across stop while touts count out change.
