Nakuru County is one of Kenya’s key agricultural regions. The country itself is among the leading potato producers in sub-Saharan Africa, and potato growing directly or indirectly provides employment for 3.5 million Kenyans, contributing over USD 400 million a year to the national budget.
"Kenya is one of Africa's most dynamic agricultural markets, and the fact it was chosen to host the World Potato Congress in Naivasha underlines this status. Uralchem Group has extensive international experience in implementing effective potato growing systems and is ready to provide farmers with tailored nutrition and agronomic support solutions. As one of the world's leading mineral fertiliser producers and a provider of advanced agricultural solutions and services, we are committed to developing mutually beneficial partnerships with farmers in Kenya and across the African continent," said Olga Poltavskaya, Uralchem marketing director.
