Change the scenario
Scenario input – not a confirmation of the area cultivated today.
Reference: Kenya's Ministry of Agriculture / JICA SHEP PLUS cites about 15 t per acre per crop cycle for well-managed kale; many smallholders harvest far less. Real yields depend on crop, season, water, soil, pests and method.
Share lost between field and plate (spoilage, transport, storage).
*Scaling only: usable tonnes ÷ 146 kg (400 g × 365 days, WHO healthy-diet guideline). Not a forecast of beneficiaries, nutrition outcomes, sales or distribution. Real reach needs weighed harvests, crop mix and distribution records.
Water and solar pumping
Drip ≈ 85–90 %, hose/furrow often 50–70 %.
A planning concept, not a system design. Pump size, lift height and water source need a site survey and supplier specification.
Plan the area
Delivery roadmap
- Validate & baseline – plot boundaries, land access, current cultivation, water source, soil, community priorities. Gate: baseline signed off.
- Design & budget – crop calendar, irrigation and solar pump specification, bill of quantities, maintenance plan, risk register. Gate: technical review.
- Install & cultivate – transparent procurement, training of the women-led farm team, records of inputs, water, planting and harvests. Gate: commissioning records.
- Measure & improve – weighed harvests, sales, household distribution, participation, costs, lessons. Gate: evidence-backed report.
Proposed phases – not confirmation that activities are completed, scheduled or funded.

What is known – and what is not
| Status | Meaning here |
|---|---|
| ● Fact | The farm initiative is based on Plot 779, Takawiri Island; women-led agriculture and food security are programme aims. |
| ◆ Target | A future output, only once formally approved with owner, budget, deadline and indicator. |
| ◌ Assumption | Every slider on this page. Replace with agronomic advice, site measurements and supplier specifications. |
| Not yet available | Weighed harvests, verified beneficiary counts, water availability, pump specification, project expenditure and donor commitments. |
Formulas: harvest = acres × t/acre; usable = harvest × (1 − loss); reach = usable kg ÷ 146; water m³/day = acres × 4,046.86 m² × mm ÷ 1,000 ÷ efficiency; PV kWp = kWh/day ÷ sun-hours ÷ 0.75.
