Farmers in the North Rift can now access quality high feeds after Unga Farm Care (EA) Ltd and National Cereals and Produce Board signed a contract that will see the agency open up its warehouses for distribution.
This partnership is aligned to the agriculture hub model that NCPB is establishing under the new reforms established last year.
“This partnership will enable us improve distribution of our range of products by taking a distribution point closer to our farmers,” Dickson Jawichre, Unga’s general manager, said.
“This will ensure consistent availability of our products to farmers in the region.”
Unga is a manufacturer and marketer of a broad portfolio of animal nutrition and health products. This portfolio includes livestock feeds, cattle minerals, feed premixes and concentrates among others.
The hub shall provide a one-stop-shop for farmers to obtain agricultural inputs, farm machinery, agricultural advisory services, and post-harvest management services, among other services.
