ABSTRACT The Lake Victoria Basin (LVB) supports one of the poorest and most populous rural populations in the East Africa region. The increase in population and the dipping fish population, has forced the community around the Lake Victoria to seek alternative sources to complement their daily food needs. This has made large scale farming for food... Continue Reading
