You can now access daily Agricultural commodities market information via this link Wholesale commodity prices and also download the monthly livestock information via this link Livestock Market information reports or directly access the National Livestock Market information official website via this link National Livestock Market Information System, Kenya (NLMIS) from NAFIS.
The themes covered on the site relate to both general and more specific agricultural topics, from natural resource management, to processing, post-harvest preservation and marketing. This website presents the information with text, graphics, audio and video in an effort to be as accessible as possible.
