Kioko Addresses 27th AGM

CGA’s role in agricultural policy has never been more critical. We don’t just talk about policy — we shape it. Since 1996, CGA has appeared before Parliament, engaged Cabinet Secretaries, submitted evidence-based position papers, and coordinated cereal farmers’ voices in national policy spaces. This is how a smallholder in Kisii or a large-scale farmer in Narok gets heard.


Farmer Representation
Parliamentary submissions, ministerial engagements, and county advocacy on farmer interests.


Evidence-Based Lobbying
Every position is grounded in farm-level data, market analysis, and real-world constraints


Industry Coalitions
Working with MoA, ASNET, STAK, CMA, AAK, and sector partners to present unified, credible voices on policy.

In 2026, CGA remains deeply engaged in critical policy discussions: the Agricultural Produce Cess (APC) reform (pushing for legislative overhaul to address ambiguity and ensure services match levies), NCPB modernization, wheat import duty structures, and the national fertilizer subsidy framework. These aren’t abstract debates; they directly impact your input costs, your output prices, and your market access.


Your membership in CGA means your voice and your farm’s data are part of this conversation. When the Cabinet Secretary convenes meetings on wheat and other cereals, they hear from CGA. When county governments set agricultural policies, CGA is at the table.
