Integrating crop species with different photosynthetic pathways has great potential to increase efficiency in the use of scarce resources.
Land Use and Land Cover Change (LULCC) is the most prominent cause of Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) variability in any landscape. Kenyan Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) have been facing extensive land use/ cover changes in the last three decades prompting a review on the impacts it has on soil quality and consequently on land degradation. This study was carried out in 2016 in Olesharo Catchment, Narok County, one of the prominent ASALs of Kenya.
The Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Nairobi has warmly welcomed a new
cohort of first-year students joining the University for the 2026/2027 academic year.
The new students are beginning their university journey at a time when agriculture is
increasingly central to addressing food security, climate change, sustainable livelihoods
and economic development. Their arrival marks the beginning of an exciting period of
academic discovery, professional growth and personal development.
