Focus on Sunflower Farming | Kilimo na Biashara

Farmers in Kenya are ditching more traditional crops such as Maize in favor of growing Sunflowers. While sunflower farming is popular in many other countries, it is still yet to gain ground in Kenya. In this edition of Kilimo na Biashara we explore Sunflower farming in Kenya.

Poor journalism you missed everything.
1.Type of soil for growth sunflower
2. Type of seeds or variety
3.where to get seeds
4. Harvest per arcerage and many more

[@Mamajonaful]

Wambua said that they dont plant the seeds they harvest as yields would not be good. They have to use new ones. Arent the seeds he plants harvested elsewhere? A seed produces after its on kind... Why wouldnt a seed planted from a harvest not give a good yield if the original seed was good enough to plant? Ama ni GMO? Someone educate me please.

[@chrismwangi5645]

Just as u plant maize you tend to source from the agrovet the certified ones.hakuna difference

[@newtonmuriira424]

GMO ilifuka kitaambo. The fact that huwezi replant na iyield I think it is GMO
