[@josephtanui290]

Good info. Knowledge is power. Thank you.

[@Foi_Nyamu]

Where did she buy the seedlings?

[@lizmukui2369]

Grace was my boss many years ago, a go-getter and I am not surprised to see what she is doing and her success.

[@mikengaruiya2529]

I have toured several Avocados farms but none beats this one. . The farmer has her craft well planned, articulated and homework well done. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. This is Avocado 101 manual. Lynn you interviews are well mastered, hata wewe 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@godfreymugah8798]

Lady knows her stuff. And she was very quick to recognize her team's contribution to the success at 1:30:16. She deserves her success and the sky is the limit

[@fav24254]

She made me do my 20 acres orchard.I was inspired by her

[@gitgenKE]

Excellent, which trees did you plant?

[@fav24254]

I did hass but also incorporated a bit of fuerte for pollination

[@trendystamps5714]

Where are you located ???​@@fav24254

[@mujunansimichael7378]

Per acre how many seedlings do you plant

[@aggreyogoti4282]

This is masterpiece

[@mutenyotimothy3242]

Here in Uganda, I saw her plant it and now she is reaping. Very inspiring, hope soon to follow those footsteps. Thank @Lynn for bringing us such stories. Thank my Kenyan sisters and brothers.

[@FreshMuthokoi]

Thanks Lynn. I loved the show. We have just planted some 700 hass avocado trees in muranga, and hope in 2 years we will be harvesting some fruits.

[@TheMKTube]

Congrats on the 700 trees :) is it possible for foreigners to buy land and plant it or setup pack house? Any issues with crime etc?

[@jeffersonmwangemi8567]

At least....Lynn... today you have interviewed someone the industry I am in... that great woman is on another level....we like what she does

[@wogutejames4935]

Very good show, I have followed her since she started in 2018. The truth that has not been told in this video is that this venture is very expensive...it's not a poor person crop to grow...it's such an investment

[@Malimum]

These conversations make you question yourself on the career decisions you made. Africa has the wealth. ❤❤

[@moustaphabalde5116]

❤ You're absolutely correct!

[@bvhia]

Raw materials

[@antoinelusamba7015]

Honestly my sisters I am from DRCongo. But I learned a lot and good things about on how to do planting avocado from seed to bear fruit which is very important for people like us the beginner in avocado fields. My country DRCongo is not at all near of your one Kenya because my country people only have differents business to follow. Thank you very much for you all people doing farming. Merci beaucoup et bonne chance.

[@wanguindungurecheal]

Merci aussi ma soeur, j'aime aussi l'agriculture, nous avons beaucoup appris❤

[@MburawaUK]

I am loving how we are embracing farming as a sector and involving our children to carry on the legacy. 🎉 Learnt alot.

[@maureenwambui2992]

She is such a teacher. I love her. She will succeed in anything she does because of her curiosity for information and her ability to remain a student!

[@kennethokumu6375]

Excellent avocado supply chain education, I have enriched my avocado knowledge, she is a true educator 💯 love it! Great content Lyn.

[@seraphariel1364]

This woman should offer online workshops. Her knowledge is extensive. She should make it another source of income. And it will help a lot of ppl become independent at the same time. Thank you Lynn for bringing her knowledge to your platform. 🙏💖

[@George-j7t]

A good presentation am very much interested in feeding how would I get in touch with the farmer

[@sialuk85]

Iko already

[@kim01kimathi]

❤❤❤❤

[@elizabeththuita5936]

Wow!!what a beautiful and inspiring conversation. Grace is a powerhouse of information.

[@earwicker8821]

Very informative and got some lessons to be learned from her experience in growing avocado. Regarding the altitude for growing avocados, as far as I know Hass is guatemalan type of avocado that need cool climate to grow that's why in tropical countries it needs higher altitude in this case above 1,500 meter above sea level. Some of avocados can grow in hot climate and mostly are west indian type. Therefore in Kenya Hass need higher altitude meanwhile in Spain it can be grown in lower altitude.

[@CarolineMbithiDey]

Thanks Lynn and Team I absolutely love the agribusiness show, this was also a whole Masterclass so many great life lessons 💕

[@LynnNgugi]

Thank you so much🙏🙏🙏

[@dadumuhammed1231]

Where can we get the seedlings

[@collenz.mbengo5680]

Hi from South Africa. This is very informative and thank you @LynnNgugi for your style of interview, you as pertinent questions and allow the interviewee space to express oneself. Your level of attentiveness and subsequent/flow of questions shows you were listening to the answers given, you do not just blurt out pre-written questions and let your mind wonder off but rather you took us the subscibers right under that tree and we were listen and asking through you. To the farmer, thank you for the passion shown and not gate keeping information. Kenya, we love you....I also picked up a lot of similarities in pronunciation when you guys switched to yoour local language....strangely I could follow without subtitles🤣

[@SuperKui87]

This is one of the most informed fruit agronomist i have ever come across. She is incredible to say the least.

[@kennethbiaka3352]

Great conversation Lynn, with Grace. She is such a wealth of knowledge and does not hold back any info like some successful entrepreneurs will, for fear of competition. She seem selfless and wants to grow with her community. I believe she can turn anything she touches into gold. Great work!

[@De_TRUCKER...]

@1:29..😂😂😂 She is such a vibe.I could listen to her and not notice time passing by.I see why you had 7hrs with her.May she keep up with the goodwork..👏

[@rabiibrahim3474]

Oh i enjoyed this one because she spoke in English most of the time. Thanks ma for that and I have also learned something!!

[@aifelrileyothaya23]

Greating from Ethiopia , Her knowledge is extensive.

[@Ruqow]

Waaw mum! She is so inspiring. I am a pawpaw farmer and new in the field and i want to try Hass Avocado.

[@smugure]

The best person to tell you about Avocado production - I have witnessed her journey from seedling to market. Well done Grace!

[@henrykabwele641]

This is really inspirational! I've learned something new, a whole different story never really thought of in that way

[@alicekamau-z1v]

In 5-10 years I also have to go to farming, wacha nipate dollar kwanza ninunue tushamba nyumbani. So, help me God.

[@masilajohn677]

my exact plan too, help us GOD

[@nyamburamaina1741]

Thank God for you Lynn...this is very timely

[@kapembwasikazwe8000]

I'm really inspired. I left office work into the mud for farming. I've a few Hass Avocado plants and pushing hard to scale up. Thanks.

[@TheC2g4]

This is a very educative and informative session - Especially the Seed Selection and croning topic. Madame Grace keep doing a good work of sharing knowledge and hard earned experience on the commercialization of the Avocado - GREEN GOLD. Equally important to note your passion and interest to promote the Small scale and Out-growers community around your ORCHARD. Stay Blessed.

[@phyllismainagithaiga9416]

Respect to your great work! FYI Must keep off pests. Avocado have pests especially mearly bug and false coddling moth. These two pests are the main challenges for avocado exports. Get in touch with government bodies AFA- HCD and KEPHIS before venturing for full information otherwise you will get unpleasant shock!

[@boohookidscreations8003]

Grace is such a courageous and visionary woman. Her journey of farming is simply remarkable, I doubt I could have made it with all the setbacks. She deserves all the fruit from her labor, she have done exemplary opening up this new frontier in avocado farming.

[@RICHTECHMEDIA254]

I have loved the hard work she has committed to nice 👍

[@lumokip1525]

Lynn ,this woman is my inspiration,karakuta farm boss...I got some avacado yard because of her,...God bless her and your channel

[@lindiwelisa1371]

Am from zimbabwe am inspired

[@agribongahub]

This a very good and informative lesson. Am currently taking MSc Agricultural Extension Education and yes as the agriculture people information taught may not align especially on the spacing that's where tacit knowledge from experience comes in. The ministry should invest in farm visit training from successful agriventures.

[@roselynodera]

Excellent presentation and rich in information. Really appreciated it. Thanks Lynn and Mme Karanja.

[@wallstreet497]

This is a priceless lecturing on avocado farming

[@melodynyambuya2073]

I'm impressed, thank you for sharing such an inspiring journey

[@catherinewangarithuku8676]

Wow Lynn ,tell her to do more KZbin videos,we ,the upcoming hass avocado farmers rely so much on her advice.

[@skinnyzebra8626]

She does have one but I don’t remember the name coz that’s where I first saw

[@Eta544]

Grace Ngungi -Karanja is a Daystar University Alumni. I remember her from back in the day. Good job 👏🏾

[@maingikim]

Congrats Karakuta. Keep up. Very informative.

[@robertmuiruri550]

This mum is a blessing to us. She is so good in what she does and she is generous to share her wisdom

[@RoseNyambura-il7wf]

I have learnt so much from this session.Thanks Grace and Lynn tunakupenda sana

[@faithimani5480]

Best teacher and you can see how passionate she is in sharing her knowledge. No need ya going ukibahatisha she has given the BEST information. Thank you so much God bless.

[@gitgenKE]

Institutions in kenya remain exploitative, small scale tea/coffee farmers still get paid less than 100 shillings per kg, decades after being the country's main export products.

[@RascalEd-hw6yw]

The value lies in the finished product unfortunately. As long as farmers keep selling raw products they will be exploited to the end which is quite unfortunate and unfair. However some few farmers get upto $20 per kg for finished coffee

[@gsotheblessedone6310]

Hass avocado also can stay longer after harvest compared to our own local avocado,I once worked in kitchen in Dubai could notice that , I love the fact she said first check out on market before planting

[@HMBLOSSOMS]

Too Inspiring for a single video...Thank you Lynn

[@KerenWanjiku]

Hyyy Lynn 👋👋, am Soo granted for such a beautiful agricultural method to plan . Am raised at a family where we do farm Hass avoccados at home, we have planted 60 pieces already have been starting to harvest like 3 years nows ,still we ha planted over 3000 piece's of seed plants, quarter of it we have Grafted . The problem is that,where to find for market for a ready Grafted seed plants........
