The cooperative way
A quietly excellent way to farm
Long before “climate-smart agriculture” had a name, the people of Keiyian were already practising it. What began in 1968 as a demonstration farm has grown into a cooperative that has outlasted droughts, market shocks and even fire — and kept growing.
With SNV and KALRO under the ICSIAPL programme, our improved forages — Brachiaria, Panicum Mombasa, Lucerne, Rhodes grass — feed our herds better while cutting methane intensity by up to a third per litre of milk. Better for the cow, the farmer, and the climate.
Word from the community
People who farm with us
“The field day at Keiyian changed how I manage my pasture. My cows have never milked better.”
“My attachment at Keiyian gave me real, hands-on experience no classroom could.”
“Their Sahiwal bulls transformed our herd. Hardy, well-bred, exactly as described.”
Farm with us, the cooperative way.
