Reading Time: 4 minutes Farmers today are investing heavily in market-oriented crops. Seemingly, there are two tiers. Tier One is the local market producers who have narrowed the farm-to-market pipeline down to a formula. Tier Two is the export-market producers with larger land holdings and heavy capital investment in expertise, technology, boreholes and with hundreds of greenhouses dotting the landscape in places like Isinya (Kajiado County). It might be a good thing -there is growth of ecosystem players and factors that form an enabling environment.

But is the narrow focus on a few crops that do not form the majority of food crops a cause for concern?
