Abstract
The program also provided microfinance support to 1,500 farmers, enabling them to access credit and improve their access to markets. The program also reported a 30% increase in the number of farmers selling their produce to local markets. The initiative's geographic focus was on the Eastern Province, with a particular emphasis on the counties of Embu and Meru. The program's timeframes spanned three years, with the first year focused on implementation and the second year on midterm evaluation. Recommendations from the midterm evaluation included scaling up the program to other regions and increasing support for irrigation infrastructure development.
