Agriculture, forestry, and fishing expanded by 4.4 per cent in the second quarter of 2025.
Coffee, fruits, vegetables, flowers, and milk output rose substantially on the back of favorable weather.
Agriculture sector players expect the economy to perform better over the three months to February and the rest of 2026, buoyed by strong agro-processing and State support for productivity, a survey by the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) shows.
The CBK survey conducted in November involved face-to-face interviews with retailers, wholesalers, and farmers in select markets and farms. A total of 306 respondents were sampled, out of which farmers and retailers accounted for 52 percent and 36 percent, respectively, while wholesalers accounted for 12 percent.
