What Is A Carrot

What is a carrot? It is a highly nutritious root vegetable. Carrots are typically orange, but some varieties are in purple, white, and yellow colours.

Carrot farming started in China and Northwestern Europe in the 13th century. It spread to other parts of the world during the early colonial settlement period (the 1600s – 1763).

Over the last six decades, the world has seen an upsurge of carrots, with China, Netherlands, Algeria, Kenya, and Spain cementing their positions as leaders in the carrot export market. The root vegetable market was valued at USD 1.93 billion in 2020.

Growing Cauliflower

Cauliflower is a vegetable that forms white curds and resembles a cabbage. It is a nutritious vegetable widely grown in Central, Rift valley, Western and Coast regions.

Originally, cauliflower was first cultivated in Asia around the Mediterranean Sea since Ancient Roman times. Later on, Europe started growing cauliflower in the 1500s. Finally, in Kenya, cauliflower cultivation started in the late 1980s. 

Kenya is one of the countries in Africa that practices large-scale cauliflower farming. The average yield is estimated at 87,000 tons per year. These exports are valued at more than 24 billion Kenya shillings. 

FrutPlanet partners with small-scale farmers to source and export organic cauliflowers worldwide. We’ve been rated as one of Kenya’s most reliable exporters. Our export is done globally. Get a quote from our website to buy fresh cauliflower online today.

Where Does Lettuce Come From?

There’s conflicting information on where lettuce originated from, but many historians point to the Mediterranean area, Europe, or Asia. Documentation establishes Ancient Egyptians as the first to practice lettuce farming over 6,000 years ago.

Today, lettuce is grown all over the world. China, the United States, India, Italy, and Spain lead in lettuce farming worldwide. In Africa, Kenya and South Africa are among the top-producing nations. 

The commercialisation of lettuce in Kenya began around the 1970s, although most farmers could sell it locally. Export-oriented lettuce farms were established in the 1980s. Kenyans, except those from dry regions like North Eastern and southern Kenya, have increasingly ventured into lettuce farming over the years. 

In 2021, Kenya exported 142.93K metric tonnes of fresh lettuce worth US$472,020. Unfortunately, the value of lettuce exports declined in 2020 because the world was battling a pandemic. 

Between 2017 and 2019, experts valued lettuce exports at $13,000 to $39,000. With the stabilisation of economies, we are looking forward to increased exports, with projections showing the market could hit a million dollars in 2023.  

Where Does Lettuce Come From Kenya? 

A high percentage of lettuce supplies is mainly from farmers in Trans-Nzoia, Kiambu, Nyeri, Uasin-Gishu, Nakuru, Nandi, Laikipia, Kisii, Bungoma, and Kericho. 

Since most are small-scale lettuce farmers, it is not easy to supply globally. That’s why FrutPlanet partners with them to deliver fresh, organic lettuce to customers who buy lettuce online. We have a strong market presence, especially in Europe, the Middle East, and Australia.

Mushroom Farming In Kenya

Mushrooms are an ancient delicacy in Kenya. Traditionally, people picked these vegetables from the wild. Farmers started growing mushrooms for export after Kenya gained independence in 1963. Since then, farmers from the Western, Nyanza, Coast, Rift Valley, and Central regions have increasingly ventured into the lucrative business of mushroom farming. 

Data from the National Farmers Information Service (NAFIS) shows that Kenyans produce approximately 500 tonnes of mushrooms annually. These are worth around $2.8 million or KES 340 million.  

Most Kenyan producers rely on mushroom exporters like FrutPlanet to sell their agricultural produce across the globe. Our network consists mainly of small-scale mushroom farmers. We understand that customers who buy mushrooms online from us have high expectations. Therefore, we only work with expert-certified cultivators that grow organic mushrooms.
