It is all smiles for farmers in Nyahururu town and its environs as they started flocking to the National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB) Nyahururu depot in Nyahururu town for government-subsidised fertiliser.

The farmers started flocking to the NCPB depot early this week after receiving the subsidy voucher code on their mobile phones last Friday.

In an interview with KNA, NCPB Nyahururu Depot Manager Robert Apenyi said for now the farmers are receiving two brands of fertiliser, Yara and Mavuno, noting that the distribution in the region is timely and will help the farmers to be prepared for the coming planting season.

He also affirmed that the e-voucher system in the depot is running smoothly, which is fast-tracking service to the farmers, adding that on average the depot serves 200 farmers.
