Makueni County leads Kenya’s agricultural innovation with its successful mango processing plant and climate-resilient farming initiatives.
Makueni County has become a model of local innovation in value addition and climate-smart agriculture. The Makueni Fruit Processing Plant has empowered thousands of farmers by turning surplus mangoes into juice and puree for domestic and export markets.
The county also promotes sand dams, irrigation, and renewable energy in arid zones. Governor Mutula Kilonzo Jr.’s administration continues to focus on youth empowerment, cooperative movements, and agricultural resilience. Makueni is redefining rural development — one fruit at a time.
