Mandera County is stepping up efforts to combat the effects of climate change, which continues to pose major challenges to residents, particularly farmers.
Recurrent flash floods along the River Daua have severely impacted agricultural activities, prompting the county government to implement transformative projects aimed at enhancing food security and expanding farming beyond flood-prone areas.
One of the key initiatives is the Yabicho, an irrigation project in Mandera North.
This project includes the installation of a 15kW solar-powered water pump with a discharge capacity of 80m³ per hour to ensure a reliable water supply for irrigation.
