In the opinion piece, I argue that for devolution to truly deliver, counties must strengthen coordination, remove trade barriers like prohibitive CESS fees on agricultural produce and inputs, and embrace climate-smart, inclusive approaches that empower farmers, pastoralists, and fisherfolk. Counties can, and should take decisive steps to make agriculture and food systems transformation possible. 👉 Read the full article here: [https://lnkd.in/dcRichQh] #Devolution #Agriculture #FoodSystems #Kenya #TMG #FoodSystemsTransformation TMG Think Tank for Sustainability, GIZ Kenya, Dr. Sophia Baumert, Jeffrey Ngari, Sharon Vera.
