Cultivating an Enabling Business Environment for the Organic Inputs Sector in Kenya: Policy Brief

Global Food and Nutrition Security

Kenyan agriculture is a cornerstone of the national economy, but high input costs and unsustainable farming practices threaten its long-term productivity and environmental health. Organic inputs offer sustainable and economically viable solutions. However, the organic inputs sector faces significant challenges that hinder growth, innovation and adoption of more sustainable farming practices. Key barriers include administrative hurdles, high costs, technical barriers, and an unsupportive policy environment. Addressing these challenges will create a more enabling business environment, encourage innovation and farmer adoption, and strengthen Kenya’s position as a regional leader in organic agricultural inputs.
