Dairy Farming Revolution in Kenya

Have you ever thought about dairy farming as a viable business venture in Kenya?

The daily industry in Kenya has recently seen a tremendous growth and a great potential exists for serious investors willing to make a decent living in this sector. My appeal is especially to the young Kenyans who continue to graduate from our schools, colleges and universities to seriously consider this option.

You can easily be a job creator and bet you could be laughing all the way to your bank.
Am reliably informed that Kenya is now the leading milk producer in sub-Saharan Africa and the sky is not just the limit but the floor for those who dare.

There are excellent super breeds that can easily deliver upwards of 40 litres per day. (Am told one of these can cost you like 150k). However, with 3 or 4 of these, and Brookside guaranteed price of Kenya shillings 30 per litre, then you can clearly see the potential. I can bet you don’t need anyone to offer you a job-do the maths.

Brookside dairy is even offering dairy farmers very enticing incentives with even up to 7 months price guarantees-your only headache would be milk production. Financiers are also keen on the industry so capital should not be a big deal.

Additionally and with the rising fuel costs, you can easily generate biogas for both lighting and heating with no recurrent monthly bills, not to mention availability of a proven nutrition booster for the households.

This is surely the white gold of Kenya. Let’s roll up our sleeves and go for it guys. You will thank me when you get there.
