Sugar beans require 400-500mm of water per season for optimal yield. Maintain soil moisture at 60-70% field capacity, irrigating every 7-10 days. Water stress is most damaging during flowering and pod-filling stages, reducing pod set and seed size due to disrupted photosynthesis and assimilate partitioning

The choice of variety depends on the yield potential, season length, anticipated disease problems and use.

*Considerations when choosing maize hybrid varieties*
1.amount and distribution of rainfall
2.length of the growing season
3.altitude and air temperature
4.soil fertility and fertiliser application
5.planting date
6.plant density
7.use (commercial grain, green mealie and silage)
8.occurrence of pests and diseases
management

NB:Always plant new certified seed each year for maximum yields.

Early maturing hybrids take between 120 and 140 days from planting to maturity, whereas medium to late maturing varieties take between 141 and 155 days to mature. However the time to maturity for any variety depends on air temperature: the cooler the temperatures the longer the plants will take to mature( accumulation of heat units).

The planting operation is one of the most important in crop farming because it is the time when the seed or seedlings are placed in the ground to establish the crop. If there is poor establishment, yield potential is immediately limited. Factors to consider are the time of planting, the plant spacing, the depth of seeding and placement of the seeds relative to fertilizer. The time of planting has a major effect on the yield of a crop. For most crops there is an optimum time of planting, which depends on the climatic conditions and the time taken to reach maturity. For summer crops, such as maize, cotton and groundnuts, early planting at the beginning of the rainy season is desirable, as yields decrease with late planting. The plant spacing refers to the distance between rows and between plants in the row. The closer the spacing, the greater the number of plants per hectare. The ideal plant spacing depends on the type of crop, variety and the climatic conditions such as rainfall/water availability.

As the rains are vast approaching proper planning is needed.

Plant potatoes in a sunny place with at least 6 hours of directly sunlight each day. The tubers need to grow in fertile, loose, well-drained soil; hard or compacted soil leads to misshapen tubers. Ideally, soil is slightly acid (pH 5.8 to 6.5) and the soil temperature is at least 45º to 55ºF (7° to 13°C).Also there are other factors to be considered or factored in.

Livestock form an integral part of the social, cultural and economic livelihoods of people in the study area. Livestock are a source of manure for crop farming and pro- vide nourishment in the form of meat, milk, milk products and eggs. Also, livestock are an important source of household income, which is then used to access essential goods and services such as clothes, health care, shelter and Education

The Boran cattle breed originated in the northern area of Kenya, on the Somali border. Kenyan ranchers recognised them as the best indigenous beef animal in East Africa, and through careful selection improved the breed to the highly efficient animals they are today

The boran was bred for a wide range of environments as a crossbreed it has traits of economic importance

ability to withstand periodic shortage of water and feed, ability to walk long distances in search of water and feed and ability to digest low quality feeds.
