It seems maize doesn't make in Nyandarua. They look very dwaff

[@sammycheptaruskibor1918]

Thanks for feeling for my people in elgeiyomarakwet kapyego to be specific, this guys are robbing our people

[@joneskwasioyortey8574]

I have enjoyed your conversation and I appreciate your efforts so much. My only displeasure is with your interspersing the conversation with your local language. Good work; keep it up. My advise is that: try to scale it after a couple of seasons. By so doing, you're creating your office. Just apply the knowledge you acquired in economics to it and you're done.

[@TV47Kenya]

Hi Jones. Thanks for your feedback

[@muskrilcardo9372]

What's wrong if she uses her local luga, ama wewe ni mzungu!!!

[@wanangwashalomjrphiri3131]

[@muskrilcardo9372]

@@wanangwashalomjrphiri3131 that's fine u can point it out to the program producer, but not to make it like speaking ur countries language is a crime!!!!!

[@NickAlvarado-eh4vy]

8 bags makes sense

[@gathoni132]

Come in mau narok we do big farms we harvest 120bags weighing 80kgs .. This girl is not a real farmer she's kinda trying to be.

[@arthurkorir7846]

Per acre or?

[@jacintakyeva4900]

Hi gathoni I really need a shamba in narok. How much is it per acre?

[@kelikilango8566]

Give us your contacts we did to come there and learn

[@lydiakaguu6143]

Just saying she isn't a real farmer says a lot about you...teach yourself to uplift others incomparable to yourself

[@zagadat254]

Poverty is the enemy
