For Henry Mailu, a horticulture farmer in Makueni County, solar energy is changing how he farms and when he harvests.

With a solar-powered water pumping system installed on his six-acre farm through the #DREEMProgramme, Henry can irrigate his mango trees throughout the year without relying on seasonal rains. This has enabled him to advance his mango harvesting window to November, instead of waiting until January as he did in previous seasons.

Watch the video to hear Henry share how access to solar energy is transforming his farm and supporting year-round agricultural production.

Discussions at the #DREEMConference are highlighting how far the DREEM Programme has come, while also exploring the next generation of innovation and the opportunities ahead for agri-solar in East Africa.

The conversations began with a look at the progress made across the three DREEM Hubs. During the session, Showcasing DREEM Hubsโ€™ Impact to the World, programme managers shared experiences and insights, highlighting achievements, lessons learned and the work taking place across the region.

Great ideas only work with the right partners behind them.

@Ddamulira2050 of the @MottFoundation shares valuable insights during the #DREEMConference on strengthening the DREEM Hubs, highlighting the importance of local partnerships, long-term thinking and community-centred development.

"This work is never finished. This work is never complete."

Watch his remarks as he challenges us to think beyond project timelines and invest in lasting impact.
