The Horticulture Industry stakeholders held a Media briefing on the State of the Avocado Industry in Kenya. Our Avocados are grown naturally in the most ideal conditions in the world right on the equator. Thus they require very little crop protection, making them mostly organically grown and produced. Kenya’s equatorial climate allows it to produce avocado throughout the year. The main season for Kenya’s avocados is February to October. The Fuerte is available from February and Hass variety being available from March. 70% of the avocados are grown by smallholder farmers who have 5-20 trees per homestead, 20% by medium scale farmers who have over 100 trees and 10% by large commercial plantations which have 10 hectares or more in production.11
