Rain Washes away Kenya's Crops

The Farming World

Available for over a year

Unprecedented and continuing torrential rain in Kenya is washing away all hopes of good crops, as well as helping to spread Rift Valley fever. Plus, new water-loving root systems for tomatoes. And internet learning via the online Univeristy of Tropical Agriculture is launched in Vietnam by Dr Reg Preston as an alternative to sending students overseas to study. Listen to the other side of this argument at the end of The Farming World broadcast on 6 April, 1998.
