Yesterday in Githiga Ward, Githunguri Sub County, I had the privilege of training farmers on budgeting, basic financial literacy, and animal health management.
Empowering our farmers with knowledge is how we build resilient food systems. When farmers understand their numbers and herd health, entire communities thrive. Grateful for the engagement and great questions from everyone who attended.

Why Every Farmer Should Add Molasses to Livestock Feed
Molasses is one of the most affordable and effective feed supplements for livestock. When used correctly, it can improve feed intake, support animal health, and boost farm productivity.
Improves Feed Digestion
Molasses helps animals utilize roughages more efficiently, improving nutrient absorption and overall feed efficiency.
Reduces Feed Wastage
Its sweet taste makes feed more palatable, encouraging animals to consume more of their ration and waste less.
Provides Quick Energy
Rich in readily available sugars, molasses supplies an instant energy source that supports productivity and animal performance.
Supports Growth and Production
Better feed intake and improved digestion contribute to healthy weight gain, improved body condition, and enhanced milk production.
Supplies Essential Minerals
Molasses contains valuable minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and iron that support overall animal health and immunity.
Whether you keep dairy cattle, beef cattle, goats, or sheep, molasses can be a valuable addition to your feeding program when used appropriately.
