According to the government of Kenya, “more than 10 million people suffer from chronic food insecurity and poor nutrition.” Food access and availability are mainly influenced by population growth, low income, cost of nutritious foods, sufficient food supply systems, disease, resources and environmental disasters such as floods and droughts. (Republic of Kenya, 2011). All of these factors are putting increased pressure on the country to increase access to food, as the population grows and diet-related health problems increase. There are interventions implemented by ministries in Kenya, such as health and nutrition programs, restocking programs, stocking, food and feed procurement (Bahemuka, n.d.).
