Agroforestry woodlots in drylands

Kenya Kwanza government promised to establish 5 million acres (20,000 km2) of agroforestry woodlots in drylands.

The government has launched a 10-year strategy for agroforestry that includes establishing 5 million acres of woodlots in drylands by 2035. Importantly, however, the target date has moved from 2027 to 2035.
The government also unveiled the Kenya Landscape and Ecosystem Restoration Monitoring Framework (FLRMF) to track implementation and ensure accountability.
As at August 2026, there is no evidence of any actual agroforestry woodlots established by the government.
