Community Initiatives for Sustainable Development Project (CISDEP) advocates for a return to indigenous crops farming in order to address the issues of hunger, food insecurity, poverty and health that are further compounded by climate change impact Particularly in Thika East district, among the farming population, 95 % of the farmers here are grouped as small-scale farmers having access to an average 0.5 hectares of land, It is on this land that the households depend for food, income and both short and long-term livelihood security. During the recent years, land sizes in Thika East have continued to diminish owing to increasing populations. Sub-divisions have led to the production of uneconomical units. Even in communities that have bigger land sizes, the income from such plots is still very low Poor soil fertility, inadequate crop diversity, lack of crop rotations, poor farm planning and general luck of technical knowhow are among primary factors contributing to food insecurity and rural poverty.
