The Ngurumani Irrigation Scheme supports the cultivation of a diverse array of fresh produce, turning it into a key supplier for local and regional markets. The produce from these farms now reaches major market centers, including Magadi, Kiserian, Ongata Rongai, and even Nairobi’s Marikiti Market .
Key Crops in Production:
Vegetables: Kales, tomatoes, spinach, and okra are staple crops, providing fresh, nutritious options for families and a steady income for farmers .
Fruits: The region is rich with pawpaws, mangoes, and bananas, which are in high demand and yield substantial returns for growers .
Legumes & Staples: Maize is also grown, contributing to household food security alongside cash crops .
This produce not only supplies local markets but also helps stabilize food supply chains, reducing Kenya’s reliance on imports.
