Upland rice cultivation is gaining momentum in the Eastern Kenyan counties of Meru, Embu and Tharaka Nithi.
This surge is driven by a collaborative effort between Kilimo Trust, the Kenya Agriculture and Livestock Research Organization and Egerton University.
The varieties, also known as dry rice, are grown in drier areas or in regions with well-drained soils, similar to where maize or wheat are planted.
