摘要：Although Agriculture is the mainstay of Kenya's Economy, it is one the poorest in terms of performance as compared to other sectors. Negligence by the government in budgeting is no doubt one of the contributing factors among poverty, which is the underlying cause of hunger and malnutrition and redundancy of this sector. Use of systems approach to address agriculture, getting men into agriculture, deliberate placement of agro industries in rural areas, revamping extension and linking it to research, and development of infrastructure are some of the strategies that have been suggested in order that people's nutritional status may be enhanced. It is not one factor that will lead to good nutrition but a collection of factors well integrated and advocated by the majority. (Af. J. Food and Nutritional Sciences: 2001 1 (1): 43-50)
