The digitization of agricultural value chain in Kenya will give farmers easier access to markets, accurately predict weather and let them enjoy quality seeds, said Cabinet Secretary for Agriculture and Irrigation Mwangi Kiunjuri.
"We are digitizing our agriculture to help ease agricultural processes, boost electronic commerce and provide open data for future use," Kiunjuri said during the opening of the East African Digital Conference in Nairobi.
