Item Cost Of Milk Production in Kenya: Estimates from Kiambu, Nakuru and Nyandarua Districts - Smallholder Dairy Project(Kenya Agriculture Research Institute, 2003) Staal, S. J.; Waithaka, M.; Njoroge, L.; Mwangi, D. M.; Njubi, D.; Wokabi, A.; Kenya Agricultural Research InstituteThe studies reported here were carried out by the Smallholder Dairy (R&D) Project (SDP) in response to the needs of Kenya dairy industry stakeholders for more reliable estimates of the costs of milk production in the country. These estimates are important for policy makers, development planners and donors when making decisions related to investment in dairy development compared to other enterprises, and for the design of policies to support smallholder dairy development. Moreover, significant falls in producer milk prices observed in early 2002 led to complaints from dairy farmers and wide media coverage, which further justified an investigation into the costs of milk production.
