At least 78 of the ‘Beating Famine’ participants have gone on field trips to three separate sites: Operation Mworio Out Project in Yatta, Conservation Agriculture activities (www.act-africa.org ) in Rongai-Nakuru and the Kenya Forestry Research Institute (www.kefri.org ). They will be observing various interventions including impact groups, village agricultural groups, empowerment of family governance, farm forestry, participatory management of forests, watersheds and natural forest rehabilitation, erosion control, soil stabilisation, water harvesting and use of farmland manure.

More than 200 participants have registered for the ‘Beating Famine’ conference including 5 Ministers of Agriculture/Environment from East African countries, 26 media personnel from at least 6 countries and representatives from many research institutions/universities and NGOs. The main conference starts tomorrow and will be streamed from http://www.beatingfamine.com/  from 9 am 10 April, Kenyan time (4 pm 10 April Australian EST). The presentations will be posted at http://www.beatingfamine.com/conference as they become available.

Until next time

  • Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any helpful hints for beginner blog writers? I’d certainly appreciate it.

  • My spouse and I stumbled over here different web page and thought I might as well check things out. I like what I see so i am just following you. Look forward to looking at your web page repeatedly.

  • I’m not that much of a internet reader to be honest but your blogs really nice, keep it up! I’ll go ahead and bookmark your website to come back down the road. Many thanks

  • Have you ever thought about creating an e-book or guest authoring on other sites? I have a blog based upon on the same ideas you discuss and would love to have you share some stories/information. I know my visitors would enjoy your work. If you are even remotely interested, feel free to send me an e-mail.

  • Hi, i read your blog from time to time and i own a similar one and i was just curious if you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you reduce it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any support is very much appreciated.

  • Good day! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog. Is it very difficult to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to start. Do you have any points or suggestions? With thanks

  • Hiya! Quick question that’s totally off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My weblog looks weird when viewing from my apple iphone. I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to correct this issue. If you have any suggestions, please share. With thanks!

  • This is a message to the admin. I came to your “Beating Famine Blog” page via Google but it was difficult to find as you were not on the first page of search results. I see you could have more traffic because there are not many comments on your site yet. I have found a website which offers to dramatically increase your rankings and traffic to your website: http://www.linklegends.com/free-trial. I managed to get close to 1000 visitors/day using their services, you could also get lot more targeted visitors from search engines than you have now. Their free trial and brought significantly more traffic to my site. Hope this helps :) Take care.

  • Hello there! Would you mind if I share your blog with my twitter group? There’s a lot of folks that I think would really enjoy your content. Please let me know. Thanks

  • certainly like your website but you have to check the spelling on quite a few of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very bothersome to tell the truth nevertheless I will definitely come back again.

  • Hello! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog. Is it very hard to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast.

  • I’m not sure exactly why but this blog is loading very slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a problem on my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.

  • Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You definitely know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?

  • I simply want to mention I am just very new to weblog and certainly enjoyed your page. Almost certainly I’m going to bookmark your website . You certainly have really good writings. Bless you for sharing with us your blog site.

  • Heya this is somewhat of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding expertise so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
