Series 15 - Ep 17: Calf & Heifer Care and High pressure washer and Shamba ni Biz

Welcome to the 15th season of Shamba Shape Up!

This week we are in Rongai, Nakuru County and we are visiting farmers Griffin and Edith.

From a small start with just three cows in 2013, Griffin now manages a prosperous herd of 27 cows, plus a flourishing flock of goats and sheep. But success brings its own set of problems: muddy calf pens, mastitis outbreaks, and water constraints.

This episode follows us as we help Griffin and Edith shape up their dairy operation with expert advice and the right tools to improve hygiene, enhance animal health, and maximize productivity.
