Without proper access to running water, farming can be a daunting task. Yet this is the reality that farmers must confront in some parts of Kenya. Such conditions severely limit their ability to increase their yields and secure a stable income for themselves and their family.

This alone makes sustaining adequate water levels challenging, but it’s compounded by reliance on wells for irrigation.
