Farmers urged to make own animal feed to reduce costs

The Kenya Dairy Board has urged farmers to make their own feed to reduce the cost of production.

Managing director Margaret Kibogy said the cost of production has been a big challenge in Kenya. She said it takes about Sh20 to produce a litre of milk. “Sixty per cent of the cost of production is spent on feed. Farmers should invest in producing their own feed so they can cut the cost to at least Sh15,” Kibogy said.
