Abstract
91 words
Kenyan farmers are threatened by overreliance on few crops
whose yields are reduced by adverse climatic changes. Bananas
are more resilient and produce year round, making it a more
suitable crop. To increase banana production, farmers should
be enabled to access affordable high quality seedlings. Currently,
farmers rely on natural regeneration which is inefficient and a
potential source of pests. Macropropagation is an alternative
propagation method that can supply affordable seedlings. In
this study, macropropagation efficiency of farmer preferred
banana varieties will be determined with respect to their agro
ecological zones.
