If you broadcast in an area of Kenya where farmers may be eligible for free seeds and fertilizer, consider researching the details of how they can obtain this support. The National Cereals and Produce Board is a good place to start – their website is: http://www.ncpb.co.ke/.
And remember, wherever you broadcast, you can always help farmers by researching farmer-support programs and providing details on air!
