Solar-Powered Irrigation Empowers Farmers in Machakos Against Climate Change

In the semi-arid landscape of Machakos, where rainfall has become increasingly unreliable due to climate change, one farmer, Mr. Davis Mutua, is rewriting the narrative faced by many farmers across Kenya.

Mr. Mutua has taken a bold step by integrating Epicenter Africa’s solar-powered irrigation system on his farm, successfully establishing a reliable water supply. This has marked a pivotal turning point in his farm’s battle against climate change.

Boosting Yields and Farmer Confidence

Not only has Mr. Mutua’s yield increased, but his perspective on leveraging technology and support services to optimize crop growth has also improved.

The Ennos AG Sunlight Pump is becoming a favorite among farmers due to its:
Robustness
 ✨ Cost-effectiveness
 ✨ Reliability

Combined with the PAYGO payment solution, these innovations are making sustainable farming accessible and scalable for smallholder farmers across Kenya.
