Influence of Commercialization of Small Scale Vegetable Farming on Poverty Eradication in Saboti Constituency
ISSN 2349-7807 International Journal of Recent Research in Commerce Economics and Management (IJRRCEM) Vol. 5, Issue 2, pp: (11-32), Month: April - June 2018, Available at: www.paperpublications.org INFLUENCE OF COMMERCIALIZATION OF SMALL SCALE VEGETABLE FARMING ON POVERTY ERADICATION IN SABOTI CONSTITUENCY 1Matasi, Kaari, Zipporah, 2Dr. William, Sakataka 1(Msc. Project Management), Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture& Technology 2(Lecturer Ph.D), Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture & Technology Abstract: Kenya’s smallholder agriculture remains a major engine of rural growth and livelihood improvement, yet it is largely semi-subsistence. A more commercialized production system can transform the subsistence- oriented production system into a market-oriented production system as a way of increasing the smallholder farmer’s income, welfare outcomes and hence reduce rural poverty. This study sought to describe the effects of commercialization of small-scale vegetable farming on poverty levels in rural Kenya. It was carried out in Saboti constituency of Trans Nzoia County. The specific objectives were: To establish the production level of small scale vegetable farmers and the effect this has on poverty levels in Saboti constituency; to find out how the full exploitation of potential available marketing channels for small scale vegetable farmers affects the poverty levels in Saboti constituency; and to explore the effect of asset endowment of small scale vegetable farming on poverty levels in Saboti constituency. This study adopted a descriptive survey research design, which ensures the collection of qualitative and quantitative data. The study covered small-scale farmers in Saboti constituency, using a sample of 316 respondents from a target study population of 1500.
