It is based on baseline data of an ongoing bigger panel data study involving 122 households located in Climate-Smart Villages (CSVs) and non-CSVs from 44 villages of Nyando Basin in Kisumu and Kericho Counties. The project’s focus is to assess the financial inflows and outflows of farming households by gathering and analyzing data on income, consumption, saving, lending and investment.
