Agence Française de Developement Group subsidiary Proparco and Equity Group have signed an agreement granting technical assistance of one million euros (Sh141 million) to Equity Group Foundation (EGF).
The money is meant for the implementation of the Foundation's high-impact project Climate Resilient Agri-Food Systems (CRAFS).
This partnership aims to support smallholder Kenyan farmers in the adoption of sustainable farming practices.
Agriculture is a key driver of Kenya's economic development, accounting for approximately 30 per cent of the GDP and 45 per cent of export earnings.
