The Lokubae Irrigation Scheme has now resumed back to normal business. The scheme has got one thousand two hundred hectares though they have only planted on a 350ha.
The Lokubae irrigation is served by Kerio river, it has got more than 3000 registered members. They planted maize at now two weeks down from the germination.
Managing director Mr. Wafula said that the main challenge is that the Kerio river is seasonal river hence it cannot be reliable.
Farmers are forced to do extra-work so as to meet their demands. They also face the problem of female manpower as males are pastarolist. Through this challenges they are not able to meet their goals ahundred percent.
Lokubae community dont have a place to sell their goods due to poor transport network and insecurity in the area.
