These achievements underscore KALRO’s unwavering commitment to advancing agricultural research, developing climate-smart and farmer-friendly technologies, and accelerating the adoption of innovations that enhance food and nutrition security, increase agricultural productivity, and improve livelihoods across Kenya.

The recognition also reflects the dedication, professionalism, and teamwork of the entire KALRO family in delivering the Organization’s mandate of transforming agriculture through science, technology, and innovation.

The Nakuru ASK Show is one of the most important agricultural events in Kenya. It brings together farmers, researchers, agribusinesses, and policymakers to showcase innovations and share knowledge. KALRO’s strong performance at the show demonstrates its continued relevance and impact in the agricultural sector.

The Champion Sahiwal Bull and Champion Boran Bull awards highlight KALRO’s expertise in livestock breeding. Sahiwal and Boran are important breeds for Kenya’s livestock sector, known for their resilience and productivity. KALRO has been working to improve these breeds through research and selective breeding.

The Champion Cock and Champion Dairy Goat awards showcase KALRO’s work in poultry and dairy goat production. These are important areas for smallholder farmers who rely on livestock for food and income.

The Best Stand in Research and Development award recognises KALRO’s commitment to innovation. The organization has developed numerous technologies that help farmers improve their productivity and adapt to climate change.

The awards were a proud moment for KALRO staff, who have worked tirelessly to advance agricultural research in Kenya. The recognition will motivate them to continue their important work.

The KALRO Nakuru ASK Show awards are a reminder of the importance of agricultural research in Kenya. Without research, farmers would not have access to improved varieties, better livestock breeds, and new technologies. KALRO plays a vital role in ensuring that Kenya’s agricultural sector remains competitive and sustainable.

The awards also send a message to farmers. They show that KALRO is committed to developing solutions that work for them. Farmers can trust KALRO’s research and adopt its technologies with confidence.

Congratulations from Farmers Trend Limited to the KALRO Board, Management, staff, partners, and stakeholders for this outstanding accomplishment. Together, we are driving agricultural transformation and building a food-secure, prosperous Kenya.
