  • Garissa County 2020 Short Rains Food and Nutrition Security Assessment Report
    GARISSA COUNTY 2020 SHORT RAINS FOOD AND NUTRITION SECURITY ASSESSMENT REPORT A Joint Report by the Kenya Food Security Steering Group (KFSSG)1 and Garissa County Steering Group (CSG) February 2021 1Joseph Kamau Swala (Department of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries) and Hellen Avisa (State Department of Education) I Executive Summary Food and nutrition security assessment is multi sectoral a bi-annual exercise, which aimed at achieving an objective, evidence based, transparent food and nutritional security situational analysis following the performance of short rains season in 2020 and taking into account the cumulative effects of previous seasons, to provide recommendations for possible response options based on the situation analysis. The assessment covered three main livelihood zones in the county drawing below average short rains performance, Desert Locust Invasion, livestock diseases, insecurity/conflicts as well as COVID 19 pandemic safety measures and restrictions as key drivers for food insecurity. The short rains season’s performance was below average with the county receiving 51-75 percent of the normal rains that was 28 percent below the average rainfall of 154.39 mm. It was characterized with even and poor distribution in space and time. The production of maize, green grams, cowpeas and sorghum declined by 21, 16, 31 and 43 percent compared to long term averages respectively. However, production of bananas, mangoes, tomatoes and watermelons under irrigation is expected to increase by 15, 13, 16 and 19 percent compared to the long term averages respectively. Maize stocks held by farmers were 60 percent below the long term averages due to declined production. Stocks held by traders were above the long term averages.

  • Avifauna of Ishaqbini Community Conservancy in Ijara District, NE Kenya
    Scopus 8: 5-4, December 008 Avifauna of Ishaqbini Community Conservancy in Ijara District, NE Kenya Peter Njoroge, Muchai Muchane, Wanyoike Wamiti, Dominic Kimani Kamau, and Mwangi Githiru Ishaqbini community conservancy, in the arid northern-eastern Kenya was established in 006 by local pastoralists as a community initiative to safeguard their wildlife heritage especially the endemic Hirola Beatragus hunteri. Prior to this survey there were no known recent avifaunal surveys for the area despite the fact that the conservancy lies adjacent to the relatively well-known lower Tana River forests, an important bird area (Bennun & Njoroge 1999), as well as the East Africa coast forests endemic bird area (Stattersfield et al. 998). In this paper we present the results of an avifaunal survey of the conservancy that includes a description of the bird assemblages in the conservancy, and an annotated account of some species of global and regional conservation concern occurring there. Study area and methods Ishaqbini Community Conservancy (01o 55’S and 040o 10’ E; Figure 1) is located in Ijara District, North Eastern Province of Kenya on land designated as Trust Land. The conservancy covers an approximate area of 72 km. It is bordered to the west by Tana River Primate Reserve and by the Garissa-Lamu road to the East. The area is generally low-lying with elevations of between 39 and 65 m a.s.l., and receives a mean annual rainfall of about 500 mm during two rainy seasons, April to June and October to December. However, rainfall patterns in Ijara District are greatly influenced by the coastal monsoons, making the area wetter and cooler than the neighbouring arid districts.
