Gerald Nakhungu outside his home in Mumias, Kenya, on 22nd July 2016. Switching from farming sugar cane to 'maridadi' finger millet has brought higher returns with every harvest. Gerald's three children are now in private schools, he has opened a mobile phone and motorcycle taxi business and grows trees for sale as building materials. AGRA supported the Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organisation's program to develop 'maridadi' finger millet which has higher yield than previously planted breeds.
