Climate and Soils of the District The typical agro-ecological pattern of the south-eastern slopes of the Nyandarua Range is continued on the southern and eastern slopes of Mount Kenya due to the effects of the south-east Trade Winds increase precipitation to a maximum of > 2200 mm, the annual average being about 2500 mm. Higher up, the rainfall decreases due to the lower moisture content of the trade wind inversion. This higher altitudes are still comparatively wet but also steep so that forests or National Parks are the best land use. Due to the demands of increasing land pressure, the lower, herbaceous parts of the Tropical Alpine Zones may in future be used by those farmers living below the forests for seasonal grazing of livestock. Downwards from the 2500 m level, although rainfall decreases with altitude to about 1600 mm in a 15 km. broad zone at the 1600 m level, there is no real shortage of water which would lead to water stress for the crops. The main reasons for this relatively high water availability are the low evaporation due to the typical cloud cover and the frequent morning mists, and the high water holding capacity of the deep volcanic soils which ensure that a high proportion of the rainfall is available to plants. Below that altitude, the rainy seasons become considerably shorter, with an expectation of rainfall of less than 300 mm. in 20 out of 30 years for the first rains, and less than 250 mm. for the second rains. Considering this fact, it becomes clear that maize crop failures will occur regularly and that irrigation is advantageous in that area (e.g. Mwea Tebere). In the Agro-Ecological Zones Map 23.0.3, the typical sequence from the Tea- Dairy Zone LH 1 through the three different Coffee Zones UM 1, 2 and 3, to LM 3 (Cotton Zone) and LM 4 (Marginal Cotton Zone) is shown for the District, similar to the sequence in Murang'a District. The 66% reliability of rainfall, i.e. amount surpassed in 20 out of 30 years, is shown in Map 23.0.1 for the first rains and in Map 23.0.2 for the second rains. Evaporation, varying with altitude, ranges between 1800 mm. at 1400 m., and 1300 mm. at 2500 m. The mean annual temperatures are about 20°C at 1400 m and 12.0°C at 2500 m, respectively. A summary of climatic data is compiled in Table 23.0.1, which can be used as a key to the Agro-Ecological Zones Map 23.0.3. The UM"2 Agro-Ecological Zone is represented by the Kerugoya Trial Site (23.1). The Tea-Dairy Zone (LH 1) is represented by the two trial sites in Nyeri District. Zone UM 1 is covered by the Githunguri Trial Site in Kiambu District and UM 4 by the Makuyu Trial Site in Murang'a District. The Lower Midland Zones (LM 3 and 4) are represented by Trial Sites in Erabu and Meru Districts. The Marginal Coffee Zone (UM 3) is not represented by any of the FURP first priority trial sites. Zones UH 0 and LH 0 are Forest Zones and the Tropical Alpine Zones (TA 0, I,II) belong to the Mount Kenya National Park. - 0.3 - 37TE 37^30- Map 23.0.1 KIRINYAGA 66% RELIABILITY OF RAINFALL IN AGROHUMID PERIOD OF FIRST RAINS (March-Sept, or less) Mt.

  • CJ1132 - Kenya Nyeri Karatina Double Washed Crown Jewel July 24Th, 2017 | See This Coffee Online Here ​
    CJ1132 - Kenya Nyeri Karatina Double Washed Crown Jewel July 24th, 2017 | See This Coffee Online Here ​ Intro by Chris Kornman ​ Nyeri coffees are almost always at the top of a cupper’s list of favorites, and this exceptional coffee ​ from the Karatina Factory (aka Washing Station) is ​ unquestionably the cream of the crop. Described as having a prototypical Kenya profile, an argument could be made that this coffee is the standard against which to measure the rest. The flavor profile reads like a summer music festival lineup of classic Kenya flavor notes, opening with juicy blackberry, savory sundried tomato, and blackcurrant jam, and headlined by zesty-sweet ruby red grapefruit. Karatina belongs to a small but exceptional Cooperative Society called Barichu that includes Gaturiri and Gatomboya factories and together represent fewer than 1000 smallholder farming families. The farms and factories are located within Central Kenya’s Nyeri county, bordered on the west by the Aberdares range, and on the northeast by Mount Kenya. In all of Africa, only Kilimanjaro tops the maximum elevation of Mount Kenya. Smallholders like those that contribute to Karatina tend to measure their plots by number of trees rather than acreage, averaging around 250 coffee plants per plot. Many are inter-cropping to improve the biodiversity of the region and the security of their harvest, planting banana, grevillea, and macadamia in addition to coffee. Kenya’s auction system elevates the value of exceptional coffees, and keeps the country’s coffee margins high, stable, and independent of the volatile C Market. Like most Kenyan growing regions, coffee in Nyeri benefits from its equatorial location and two distinct annual rainy seasons, resulting in a main crop in the winter and a “fly” crop harvested in the summer.

  • Information Systems Education in Kenya: Students’ Specialization Choice Trends (A Case Study of Kenya Polytechnic University College)
    International Journal of Education and Development using Information and Communication Technology (IJEDICT), 2013, Vol. 9, Issue 3, pp. 137-161 Information systems education in Kenya: Students’ specialization choice trends (a case study of Kenya Polytechnic University College) Atieno A. Ndede-Amadi Technical University of Kenya, Nairobi, Kenya ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to determine the time and level of Information Systems (IS) awareness among Kenyan university students and the choice of IS as a field of specialization. The study posited that the choice of a field of specialization is dependent upon a student’s awareness of its existence, its utilization in the real world, its career opportunities, and its strategic importance to the country’s economic development agenda. It posited further that early IS awareness could have a positive impact on the choice of IS as a field of specialization. The underlying assumptions were that the time of IS awareness as a field of specialization among Kenyan university business students was late and levels low, leading to possible low levels of choice of IS as a field of specialization. Using the survey method, the case study found late and low levels of IS awareness as a field of specialization among university business students. Future studies linking time and levels of IS awareness with choice of IS as a filed of specialization and with existence of requisite IS skills in the country (or lack thereof) are suggested. Keywords: Specialization, Awareness, Systems Analytical Skills, Joint Admissions Board, Public Universities, University Colleges, Parallel Programmes. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The History of Information Systems Although the history of Information Systems (IS) as a subject of study only spans six decades, it is among disciplines that have done much towards advancing development of the human race (Jorgenson and Vu, 2009).

  • C. the Diseases of the Country
    C. The Diseases of the Country Introduction: Source, Material, being seen, treated, and recorded in the hospital, is the denominator, to which the reported diseases are then and Methods related. The observed distribution frequency is best ap­ ptoximated by a Poisson distribution and was previously Certain methodological problems are likely to be en­ ranked in a logarithmic scale. Studies by Hinz (personal countered if observed disease occurrences based on hos­ communication, 1974) showed that a stanine rank trans­ pital or other medical statistics are interpreted in a spatial formation, classifying the hospitals according to an geographical analysis. Epidemiological surveys of good ascending order of the Hospital Recording Rate for each quality - taking environmental factors into proper con­ disease in 9 ranks differentiated (the hospitals) somewhat sideration-are scarce and usually restricted to a few . better and without an unjustified impression of accuracy: diseases of major interest or importance and consequently generally very specific as opposed to aiming at spatial coverage. Stanine Ranking of Hospital Recording Rates The most prominent problem is the lack of a common 1st = 4% spatial denominator. For example, in order to examine the 2nd= 7% relationship between rainfall or temperature and disease, 3rd =12% the two physical variables are demarcated by isohyets and 4th =17% of all recording hospitals according to an ascending 5th =20% order of disease recording rate per population in isotherms, whereas disease prevalence available in terms 6th =17% catchment area of hospital records and medical statistics for notifiable 7th =12% diseases may be based on administrative units. 8th = 7% Hospital statistics or other health statistics suffer 9th = 4% greatly from a number of systematic and mathematical biases, which can scarcely be overcome.
