Further, the study ascertained if constituency development funds were used in the alleviation of socio-economic challenges in Monze Central Constituency. The study was guided by the following objectives: to establish whether there is community awareness in the utilisation of constituency development funds; to determine whether there is Civic participation in the utilisation of constituency development funds; to assess whether there is accountability in the utilisation of constituency development funds and to ascertain if constituency development funds are used in alleviating socio- economic challenges (poverty) in Monze Central Constituency. The study was anchored on qualitative research approach and a qualitative descriptive research design was utilised. A total of 51 respondents participated in the study from the target population. These were Civic Leaders for Monze Central Constituency, Constituency Development Committee Members, Parliamentary Assistants for Monze Constituency, Council Officers linked to CDFs, headmen and community members (beneficiaries). Data was obtained through semi-structured interviews, focused groups discussions, observation and document analysis. Collected data for the study were thematically analysed. The study established that; many community members were aware of the existence of constituent development funds. This was demonstrated through the possession of knowledge on the concept CDF, source of CDFs, knowledge on the stakeholders involved in the use of CDFs and their roles in utilisation of CDFs. The study also established that there is low civic participation in the utilization of constituency development funds. The study showed that at implementation stage of CDF funded projects community members were side-lined in identification, monitoring the projects and generally all constituency development funds processes. The study findings also suggest that at implementation of CDFs projects there was no accountability. Community members were not availed with information on how CDFs were being spent and that constituency development funds has had positive socio- economic impacts in Monze central constituency in various ways. The study recommends the continuous need to publicise more information on constituency development funds and need for more consultative forums on the use of constituency development funds in the constituency. Community members need to be actively iv involved in the monitoring of all projects funded through constituency development funds. Key words: community awareness, civic participation, accountability, socio-economic impact and constituency development funds. v DEDICATION This research work is dedicated to my lovely wife, Maunga Syamwalu and my daughters, Merelyn Chileleko and Margaret Chipego Kachinga.

  • 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.
