We congratulate the Governor of Trans Nzoia County for this bold and forward-thinking initiative to draft new laws addressing climate change-related challenges. By aligning waste management, sustainable forest management, climate change, and quarry management under a strong legal framework, the county is setting a national example for coordinated, community-driven environmental action.
However, as we celebrate this milestone, it is important to highlight one often-overlooked factor that directly contributes to climate vulnerability: soil acidity. Acidic soils lead to massive wastage of NPK fertilizer, lower crop yields, and reduced crop health. This not only hurts farmers’ incomes but also limits the soil’s ability to capture and store carbon a critical tool in the fight against climate change.
Healthy soils are the foundation of food security, economic stability, and climate resilience. It’s imperative to test your soils and Correct soil acidity with solutions like CalciGrow mineral-organic fertilizer can unlock the full potential of NPK fertilizers, restore soil biology, and boost both yields and carbon capture.
Trans Nzoia is already showing leadership. By integrating soil health improvement into these climate laws, the county can achieve even greater impact for its farmers, environment, and future generations.
