Farming in the desert
Turkana County, in the northwest section of Kenya, is one of the poorest counties in the country. Thanks to crude oil exploration and hydroelectric power, the area is beginning to emerge as a major energy-producing region. But the area, much like the rest of Kenya, is still largely an agrarian-based economy. That’s a challenge considering Turkana County, in addition to being very poor, is also very hot and arid. But that isn’t stopping one man’s effort to transform what is essentially a desert into an area that could potentially house some of the most arable, profitable land in Kenya, through farming in the desert.
