Cotton Commercialization project in Kenya – by Bayer East Africa Limited & MoALF&C Page iv Environmental & Social Impact Assessment Study Report August, 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background information Cotton is one of the most important natural sources for fiber, oil, and seeds for livestock feeding. All the cotton produced in the world is obtained from four domesticated species of the Gossypium genus of the Malvaceae family. In most parts of the world where it is grown, cultivation of cotton has been characterized by application of large quantities of chemical insecticides. These chemical insecticides are applied from the plant emergence to harvest, since cotton plants must be protected from insect attack when the plant emerges, until the profitable bolls opens in a period that lasts about 5 months or more. Cotton is largely drought tolerant and in Kenya it can potentially be grown in 24 counties which fall under arid and semi-arid areas. In the 1970’s, Kenya was a major East African producer of seed-cotton for both local consumption and export. However, over the year’s production levels fell drastically due to a number of factors, key among the high production costs and the resultant low returns or earning. The current situation is such that while the annual domestic market demand is 140,000 bales with a potential to grow to 260,000, the industry is only producing a meager 10,000 bales or in 2018 or less to date. Furthermore, only about 13,000 ha of land is was utilized under cotton compared to the potential of 400,000 ha. The current yield for the local varieties HART 89M and KSA 81M is about 572 kg/ha against a potential of 2500 kg/ha with only about 20,000 farmers engaging with cotton production even when the industry can be able to support over 200,000 growers. The combined outcome is that Kenya has become an importer of cotton rather than being an exporter. The bulk of cotton and cotton products imported include Bt-Cotton, which Kenya can easily grow, creating incomes for our local farmers, create more employment in the cotton industry value chain, and safe and additionally generate more foreign exchange. It is in this context that Kenya has taken bold steps to address the problem of low yields from the local varieties caused by the African bollworm, which a key demotivating factor in cotton growing in Kenya, and join other global countries in the introduction of Bt-Cotton on farms. A good example of on the potentiality of Bt-Cotton in re-igniting cotton growing in Kenya can be taken from Mexico (In 1996, the introduction of Bt-Cotton Mexico made it possible to reactivate this crop, which in previous years was greatly reduced due to pest problems, and production costs, to a level where today Mexico is a major global cotton producer). A similar scenario is envisaged for Kenya, where farmers are usually devoted to crops that will always bring meaningful returns. Bt-Cotton is widely accepted globally by both consumers and producers. To the producers it has proven to be very efficient in the control of lepidopteran pests, leading to very high productions. In efforts by Kenya towards commercialization of Bt-Cotton, the necessary protocols including local research alongside international research have been undertaken over time both in the laboratory and field. The natural environment and socio-economic growth are inter-related. An Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) is an assessment of the possible positive

  • 4. Draft Code for Transboundary Protected Areas in Times of Peace and Armed Conflict
    4. Draft Code for transboundary protected areas in times of peace and armed conflict Explanatory notes This Draft Code is offered to neighbouring States, jurisdictions and other stakeholders concerned with the establishment and management of TBPAs. It may be used in its present form or as a basis for developing a comparable code suited to the particular needs of a country or region. IUCN would welcome requests for technical assistance in interpreting the Draft Code and applying it to particular local or regional circumstances. It is recommended that the Draft Code be made widely available to protected area authorities, key sectoral agencies, the armed forces (including border and coast guards), local governments, relevant non-governmental organisations, the media and other inter- ested parties, especially in border regions. A supportive education programme will be needed for this Draft Code to reflect the aims and guide the actions of all concerned interests. Awareness-building should be carried out on a continuing basis with all sectors of society, to foster broad acceptance of the need to conserve biodiversity and ecosystem services and to protect the integrity of TBPAs, even in emergency situations. Rationale for the Draft Code The Draft Code aims to contribute to the progressive development of legal and insti- tutional frameworks for the establishment and management of TBPAs in times of peace or armed conflict. Context Many States, sub-national units and autonomous areas share at least one land, freshwater or marine boundary. These boundaries were usually established for political or other social reasons, without reference to land or water systems.
