Food prices rising in Kenya as climate change strains supply

By GhanaSummary NewsroomPan-Africa

As climate unpredictability continues to impact food security, families are hoping the rains will stabilise prices, even as they fear that heavier-than-usual downpours could destroy the produce, driving food prices even higher.

Kenyans are feeling the pinch of food supply shortages due to climate change, with many tightening their purses and even cutting down to one meal a day.

Shifting weather patterns and rising distribution costs due to various global events are both contributing to the problem, which is expected to grow even worse with the arrival of El Nino.
