Series 15 - Ep 15: Mastitis, Brush cutter and Shamba ni Biz Drama

Welcome to the 15th season of Shamba Shape Up!

At just 28 years old, Ken Kemei is a trained engineer turned dairy farmer, learning on the go after inheriting his family’s farm. With 6 cows, a mix of crops, and big ambitions, Ken’s biggest challenge is managing mastitis in his top-producing dairy cows.

In this episode, we give Ken’s shamba a full transformation with the help of our experts and partners:

We are learning about:

  1. How to prevent and treat mastitis with proper hygiene, medicated products, and a balanced cow diet using Total Mixed Rations (TMR).

  2. Save time and effort! This tool helps Ken harvest napier grass, clean his compound, and manage farm vegetation efficiently.

This episode is a great lesson in young farmers, proper livestock care, smart tools, and resilience.
