By JOHN GITHINJIMore by this AuthorEvery farmer knows that after a harvest, real work starts. Joshua Mwangi Kagera, a farmer with over 10 years’ experience under his belt, is currently harvesting potatoes under 30 acres in Ol’Kalou, Nyandarua County. He is doing it in phases to enable him find the ideal market for his produce and maximise profits. He says having factored all the expenses from land preparation to harvesting, a sack of potatoes weighing 150kg will cost Sh2,000 in Nyandarua. The other challenge is extortion from Kenya to Uganda by police with a journey costing upwards of Sh4000.
