Bee keeping as a mechanism to improve household income, increase agricultural production and preservation of the honey bee

We continue to register food insecurity in our County and Africa at large. Little do we imagine that bees have alot to contribute to declining agricultural production. It is time to begin domesticating bees near farmed crops and fruits rather than letting nature take its course. Bees are a source of income from sale of honey and honey by products like wax are used in manufacturing a range of products including medicine, bees contribute to extensive pollination which leads to increased yields and the the list is endless. View

Electronic Agriculture in Kenya’s Arid and Semi–Arid Lands (ASAL) Schools.

The E-Agriculture methodology seeks to produce agricultural products including crops and livestock in Kenya’s ASAL Schools as a source of learning, food security and agri-business. This innovation will combine water harvesting technology, drip irrigation technology and conservation agriculture methods, green (bicycle) transport and I.C.T to realize the above. The innovation will therefore use an electronic medium to discuss, create and develop agriculture in ASAL schools through: 1. Introduction of technology: This will involve water harvesting, drip irrigation (including green houses) conservation agriculture, organic farming etc 2. Introduction of a medium for students and out of school youths to discuss agriculture entrepreneurship amongst their schools and their international colleagues. It is envisaged that computers will be introduced for the pilot project and connected to internet. Websites would be installed. Within the website, among other things: (a) Success cases would be posted (b) Electronic Newsletter would be published quarterly A hard copy of this E-Newsletter would also be produced and distributed to other schools and farmers. This web –based system will therefore connect the actors – the teachers, students, parents, education, agriculture, water, information and NGO officials etc. This operation function will therefore offer a robust, highly scalable, high speed platform to carry out the following tasks:- Publishing of static agriculture profiles of schools and other actors and offering of testimonials of E-Agriculture successes and challenges. The E- Newsletter and its hard copy alternative are expected to attract even more stakeholders who target these schools as their market segment. These include colleges, universities, and student counselors, book publishers, peace builders, HIV –AIDS counselors etc.  View
