flag Kenyan tea farmers face declining incomes and health issues due to climate-driven production drops.

flag Tea farmers in Kenya’s central highlands are struggling with declining incomes and worsening health due to climate change, which has disrupted tea production through droughts, unseasonal cold, and snow. flag Reduced yields have cut earnings, with one couple earning just 35p per person per day last year. flag Medical costs are rising, but limited income and challenges with Kenya’s new health insurance system make care harder to access. flag Production at the Gatanguru Tea Factory dropped from 24 million to 17 million tonnes between 2023/24 and 2024/25, threatening the region’s tea farming future.
