Farmer Rachael Njeri collects soils samples on her land. She has started growing forage strips on her farm which prevent soil erosion and provide feed for her cattle. CIAT is working with partners including the Kenyan Water Resource Management Authority (WRMA) and The Nature Conservancy among others to support farmers along the watershed to better manage their land, preventing soil erosion – which clogs up the waterways for other users further downstream.
