Loans to farmers and agricultural co-operatives from State-run Agricultural Finance Corporation (AFC) rose by 16.8 percent to Sh1.1 billion in the three months ended September 2025, signalling firmer demand for subsidised credit as input costs remain elevated.

The increase shows a continued rebound in lending at the corporation, reversing years of subdued disbursements that had constrained access to long-term financing in the sector.
