John, a smallholder farmer from Kieni, struggled to make ends meet with traditional farming methods. After partnering with Onion Doctor, he learned about climate-smart practices and implemented drip irrigation on his farm. Today, John’s onion yields have tripled, and he has become a successful agripreneur, inspiring others in his community to follow in his footsteps.
In Kimana, a group of smallholder farmers formed a cooperative to pool their resources and knowledge. Guided by Onion Doctor, they implemented advanced farming methods and shared best practices. The cooperative now enjoys consistent high yields and has established a reliable supply chain, benefiting not just the farmers but the entire community.
Daniel, a young aspiring farmer, joined Onion Doctor’s training program to learn about modern agricultural techniques. Equipped with new skills and supported by agronomic experts, Daniel started his own farm and quickly saw remarkable results. He now mentors other young farmers, proving that agriculture can be a viable and rewarding career for the next generation.
