Congratulations to NPCK, ASARECA, KALRO, Egerton University, FIPS-Africa, and partners for the successful field day in Murungaru, Nyandarua County! Training 216 farmers on high-yielding potato varieties is a big win for food security and farmer well-being.
For best results, healthy soils matter. Calcium plays a vital role in nutrient uptake, tuber development, and disease resistance. CalciGrow, a mineral-organic calcium fertilizer, corrects soil acidity and boosts yield and tuber quality.
We congratulate @WilliamsRuto for championing the Galana Kulalu partnership with @AlDahraAgri, opening 180,000 acres for large-scale food production. This visionary move will help transform the region into a reliable source of maize and other crops, strengthening national food security and reducing dependence on imports.
We now call on both local and international investors to seize this opportunity invest in modern irrigation, mechanisation, and high-yield seed varieties to maximise productivity.
Equally important is optimising soil health. The use of CalciGrow granulated calcium is a proven, cost-effective way to neutralise acidity, unlock nutrients, and ensure fertiliser is used efficiently. Healthy soils mean stronger crops, higher yields, and better returns.
Galana Kulalu is more than a project it’s a milestone in feeding Kenya’s future. Let’s grow together!
Kenya’s future depends on healthy soils and thanks to passionate experts like Dr. Harun Warui, that message is finally taking center stage. Featured in the Daily Nation, Dr. Warui has been instrumental in sounding the alarm on soil degradation, a silent crisis that threatens not only our farms but our national food security
Dr. Warui lays bare the urgent challenges our soils face:
Nutrient depletion from years of overuse and under-replenishment
Soil acidity from imbalanced fertilizer use
Siltation and erosion that strip the land of its productive topsoil
And the looming threat of desertification in vulnerable regions

But with awareness comes action and solutions do exist.
One such solution is CalciGrow whose benefits include;
Neutralizing soil acidity, allowing crops to absorb more nutrients
Maximizing nutrient availability
Optimizing NPK fertilizer and micronutrient uptake
Increasing moisture retention
Improving seed germination and plant growth
Enhancing pest & disease resistance
Across the country, farmers using CalciGrow are reporting healthier crops, greener leaves, and more productive harvests especially when combined with the right fertilizer blends like Fanisi fertilizer.
As we celebrate Dr. Warui’s commitment to placing soil health at the center of Kenya’s agricultural agenda, let’s also recognize the tools that are helping us take action. CalciGrow is more than just a product it’s a partner in the fight for resilient, regenerative agriculture.
Hats off to Dr. Harun Warui, and to every farmer, agronomist, and policymaker championing sustainable solutions.
The future of Kenya’s food begins with what’s beneath our feet. Let’s take care of it together.
