He has a 10-acre farm and has given an additional 6 acres to his son Innocent, who’s also a school teacher. But Innocent wants to listen in and learn from our experts.

We are in Molo visiting Carol and Weldon Cheruiyot. We first do a soil test then have a look at how to improve their dairy cows fertility by using supplements and targeted breeding. We also advice them on the carrot variety to plant in order to increase yield, learn how to properly harvest and store maize, introduce them to a solar home system and inform them on the benefits of having a pickup on the shamba.
