Kiambu County's favourable climate and rich soil make it ideal for high-quality bananas, which act as an economic booster for farmers.
Bananas, commonly known as marigu in Kikuyu, play a vital role in nutrition due to their rich content of vitamins and minerals.
In Kiambu County, bananas thrive particularly well in the sub-counties of Githunguri, Lari, Kiambu, Gatundu North and Gatundu South.
The Agricultural Sector Development Support Programme II (ASDSP) launched a platform aimed at empowering farmers by providing training and innovative equipment to boost yields and improve the quality of banana produce.
