Kenya is staring at losses of yields following the re-emergence of Maize Lethal Necrosis (MLN) and Fall Armyworm (FAW) that have previously affected maize production which will add more pressure to limited stocks in the country.
A new study released by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Centre (CIMMYT) and Kenya Agriculture Livestock Research Organisation (Kalro) notes that MLN and FAW remain a threat and called for speedy action to contain them as they pose a serious threat to food security.
