Abstract

This National Agriculture Investment Plan (NAIP) is a nationwide sectoral document accompanying the Agricultural Sector Transformation and Growth Strategy (ASTGS) to support transformation of the agricultural sector over the 10-year period 2019-2029. The NAIP covers the first five of these years. Throughout this period, it is essential for the accountable ministries to be specific enough about the proposed interventions, clearly define a sustainable path to impact and make informed trade-offs about short-term results. The NAIP will underpin Kenyan agriculture’s shift towards a commercial and modern agricultural sector that sustainably supports Kenya’s development and 100% food security aspiration. In total, the ASTGS implementation requires KES (Kenyan shilling) 440 billion in five years (200-230 billion in agricultural-specific investment, and an additional 210 billion in agricultural supportive costs for roads and power infrastructure). With an efficient public-private partnerships (PPPs), up to 80% of the agriculture-specific investments can come from the private sector, and are to be invested primarily in the agro-processing and arable land program. Thus, about 20% should come from the Government of Kenya and development partners to cover subsidies and extension. To guard against political risk, are included measures that strengthen institutional stability and secure broad public support for successful interventions. To guard against market risk, this NAIP promotes the use of as much data as possible to inform production and extension.
