During the Makueni Farmers Field Day in Mbakoni Village, Kee Ward, Makueni County, BVAT Field Farmer Officer (FFO) John Mbithi featured in a live media interview highlighting our field-level work with farming communities. He emphasized how Biovision Africa Trust is working directly with farmers to promote agroecology, organic farming, and regenerative agriculture practices that restore soil health, reduce dependency on costly synthetic inputs, and strengthen climate resilience. Through farmer-led engagement, BVAT continues to support practical, science-based knowledge that empowers communities to improve productivity while protecting ecosystems and building sustainable livelihoods.

🐝 Day 3 of World Bee Day celebrations brings the spotlight to people powering the apiculture value chain especially women and youth. At Mama Ngina Waterfront in Mombasa, Kenya, rich panel discussions explored how inclusive participation in honey production is shaping sustainable livelihoods and unlocking new opportunities in beekeeping. Biovision Africa Trust is proudly represented by Ms. Rose Gachanja, contributing to conversations on strengthening apiculture systems and expanding economic opportunities for rural communities. As part of the celebrations, BvAT is also supporting LDF farmers to showcase a variety of bee products—creating space for local innovation, improved market access, and knowledge exchange across the sector. Because when women, youth, and farmers are empowered in apiculture, we don’t just produce honey we strengthen biodiversity, livelihoods, and resilient food systems. 🐝 #WorldBeeDay #Beekeeping #WomenInAgriculture #YouthInAgriculture #Pollinators #Agroecology #SustainableAgriculture #ClimateResilience #FoodSystems

🌿 When farmers, scientists, and countries learn together, innovation becomes real impact. In Nakuru County, Biovision Africa Trust co-hosted a cross-country learning exchange with International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology (ICIPE), bringing together delegations from Ethiopia, Denmark, and Kenyatta University to experience Push–Pull Plus innovation in practice. From the demonstration plots at the Nakuru Agricultural Training Centre, Field Officer-Peter Murage walked participants through how the Vegetable Integrated Push–Pull Plus system is reshaping pest management and strengthening climate-resilient farming. But the real learning happened in the fields where farmers shared their lived experience: what is working, what is challenging, and what is changing in their yields and soil health. Moments like these remind us that agroecology doesn’t scale through theory alone it grows through shared experience, collaboration, and farmer-to-farmer exchange across borders. #PushPullPlus #Agroecology #ClimateSmartAgriculture #KnowledgeExchange #FarmerLearning #FoodSystems #Partnerships
