Shamba Shape Up Season 12 - Shamba Shape Up Series 12 – Episode 18: Cattle, Pasture, Solar pump & Rain water harvest
Welcome to Shamba Shape Up
Today we are in Kajiado county. Kajiado name comes from the word Olkeju-ado. Which means "The Long River" in the Maasai language.
We’re visiting a Masai elder Mr. Makui who is working with other farmers in the community to mitigate climate change. Makui is not only a family man but also an elder who is involved in matters affecting his community.
They have a large farm where they keep cows, grow and preserve pasture, maize and beans.
Let’s go and see what we can learn from this farm:
1. Cattle milk
2. Solar water pump installation
3. Rain water harvest
4. Supplementary fodder production
