Published on 28 August 2014, this Nyakundi Report archive item shows rabbit farming in the North Rift taking on a new commercial angle. What was once treated as a waste product was increasingly being viewed as a useful farm input with market value.
The video focuses on rabbit urine and the growing interest around its use in farming. It presents rabbit keeping as an enterprise that was no longer limited to meat alone, but one that was also producing a by-product farmers could package and sell.
In the North Rift region, that shift gave rabbit farming a different dimension. The archive does not set out detailed figures, but it makes clear that the interest was tied to the wider rise of rabbit farming as a practical business for small-scale producers.
