Agriculture remains the backbone of Kenya’s economy and the foundation of household well-being across rural and urban communities. Bottom-Up Monitor provides neutral, evidence-backed updates on how agricultural reforms are improving productivity, strengthening food systems, and supporting farmers nationwide.
What We Track

Why This Pillar Matters
Agriculture supports over 70% of rural livelihoods and drives food security, job creation, and export earnings. Monitoring this sector helps citizens understand progress on reducing food costs, improving farmer income, and advancing national resilience.
County-Level Focus
Each county has unique agricultural strengths. We track county-specific performance such as irrigation coverage, dairy output, tea/coffee earnings, and extension services.
