Knowledge on Sustainable Farming Should be Accessible to All
During a field visit while working for Greenpeace Africa, Claire came face-to-face with the reality of the farmers in Kenya who were struggling with conventional agricultural practices. These challenges ranged from an unhealthy dependency on chemical inputs, to not being able to exchange or share seeds amongst farmers. This meant that the farmers had to depend on agro-dealers for the seeds which were expensive; and they felt trapped in a vicious cycle of dependency that didn’t seem to have a way out.
