This chapter explores the dynamics of food security and predominant livelihoods in Kenya, based on data from 2003-2005. It examines cultivation intensity, national production of key crops like maize and wheat, and trends in milk production across Central and Western Kenya. It highlights areas of surplus and deficit in milk production, livestock density, and the economic share derived from fishing and hunting. This comprehensive analysis provides valuable insights into how ecosystems affect human well-being and agricultural practices.
