  • Kisumu West District Crop, Livestock and Fisheries Asessment Report for High and Medium Potential Rainfall Potential Areas
    KISUMU WEST DISTRICT CROP, LIVESTOCK AND FISHERIES ASESSMENT REPORT FOR HIGH AND MEDIUM POTENTIAL RAINFALL POTENTIAL AREAS (October 10th to 20 th 2011) Team Members 1. Justus M. Mathumbi Ministry of Agriculture 2. Rajab Ouko Ministry of Livestock Development 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 District Background Located in the western side of Nyanza province, Kisumu west district covers an approximated area of about 360.8 km 2 with an estimated population of about 149,831 people. The district has 2 divisions, 8 locations and 37 sub-locations. The divisions are Maseno and Kombewa. There are about 25,000 farm families. The key livelihood zones are Marginal mixed farming, mixed farming and Fisheries. Ecologically the District spreads across agro-ecological zone UM3, LM1 to LM4 . The altitude range is 990 -1470 meters above sea level. The district also boarders Kisumu East district to the east, Bondo district to the west, Lake Victoria to the south and Vihiga district to the north. 1.2 Food Security Trends The district is generally food secure. However, low food production from the previous two long rains seasons and the current low and poorly distributed short rainfall are worsening food security situation. Kombewa division is the worst hit due to the lowest amount of rainfall recorded in the long rains and the subsequent poor harvest. The overall situation will need close monitoring. Major grains and other food items are available and can be accessed from the markets. However, economic access remains a challenge due to escalating food prices. Drinking and livestock water is available within 2km radius in all seasons.

While many women access antenatal care, much fewer women globally have access to postnatal care. It is clearly evident that some women who test HIV negative in pregnancy end up testing HIV positive post delivery. Although most pregnant women in sub-Saharan Africa are HIV negative, they remain at risk for HIV infection in the breastfeeding period. The purpose of this study was to describe the sociocultural risk factors associated with HIV seroconversion among breastfeeding women in a Rural county in Kenya. This was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted at Homabay district hospital, in Homa Bay County in Kenya.
