Kenya’s earnings from horticultural exports for the half-year period through June recovered from a double-digit fall in the prior year amid a strengthening euro and moderating inflationary pressures, official data shows.

Sales from horticultural exports amounted to Sh69.48 billion in the review period, according to data collated by the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK), a modest 7.16 percent rise from Sh64.84 billion in a similar period last year.
