The discussion about Food and Food Systems is expanding beyond just Food Security to include Nutrition Security.

Did you know that you can be food secure but nutritionally insecure?

That is why, at the Applied Nutrition Lab, we educate communities about the importance of diversifying their food production systems in order to have access to foods with varying nutritional values.

This can only be accomplished by implementing various climate-smart and resilient technologies, innovations, and management practices.

Aquaponics technology, for example, allows the production of fish, vegetables, fruits, and other highly nutritious products from a single unit.
Talk about getting more crop per drop! An ideal technology for our country's ASAL regions.

Under the KCSAP through KALRO and undertaken by researchers at Egerton University, Maseno University Kenya Marine and Fisheries Research Institute.
