Harvesting Rabbit Urine For Fertilizer.
I did an earlier post on making an income from rabbit's urine and did promised to get a video of it, luckily it was aired few days ago on TV and so here it is for your viewing,hope it inspires you! Lest l forget whenever you hear or read where the Kenyan shilling is mentioned just multiply it by 2 to get the Naira equivalent e.g 100Ksh = N200. 100ksh = $1.12

Pumping water for irrigation and other uses using a motorcycle.
Here is a new invention by a Kenyan innovator, to help farmers pump water from shallow wells to beyond 1km for irrigation using a bodaboda (okada).
Motorcycles have proven to be a reliable form of transport, especially in the rural areas, but now there is another reason why every farmer should invest in one — it can be used to pump water!

Lawyer who turns banana into flour.
Entrepreneur Eric Muthomi of Stawi Foods. |
As a child, Eric Muthomi’s parents would take the entire family to their upcountry home in Meru during school holidays.This
is a strategy employed by many Nairobi parents to date. It is meant to
show their children the other side of life — no cars, tilling land and
walking bare foot.
But as a young adult, Mr Muthomi,
now 27, noticed something that would see him make it into the Forbes’
2013 list of 30 Under 30: Africa’s Best Young Entrepreneurs and featured
on CNN as the owner of the few upcoming African businesses.
From Computers to Greenhouse.

When meeting John Maingi, he is ecstatic. He had
earlier spoken to a high-profile client he had been introduced to and
there were prospects he was going to offer him a job.
The
client was a former government official who owns 10 acres in western
Kenya. He was consulting Maingi on the best crop to plant this season.
And
he had another sweet deal for him. He wanted Maingi to manage the
farm. Maingi arranged to visit the farm in a week’s time for a survey
before he could advise him on the way forward.
