摘要

农业是肯尼亚经济的支柱。大多数人口通过农业活动、大规模和小型农业谋生。本研究旨在揭示政府的新冠肺炎控制措施如何影响农业部门及其对农民生活方式变化的影响。本研究采用了定性研究方法,利用一级和二级数据来源,并对肯尼亚穆朗阿县加坦加县的12名农民和农业生产者进行了深入采访。这项研究表明,由于农场大门价格的波动和预计的资源稀缺,农民经历了经济冲击。相比之下,他们的生活方式因收入减少、商品优先权调整和社会地理因素而改变。新冠肺炎对加坦加亚县农业的影响因作物破坏、种植延误、,以及影响粮食商品稀缺的暴雨。该研究建议进行其他研究,以评估供应该县粮食产量的替代解决方案,而不是已经在合作社中的解决方案,如茶、咖啡、牛奶和鳄梨。此外,也许其他未来研究人员的问题现在应该针对弱势家庭的日常消费来满足他们的食物需求

COVID-19 containment measures of the Government of Kenya: Impact on food security and farmers’ socio-economic life
Agriculture is the backbone of Kenya's economy The majority of the population earn their living through agricultural activities, large-scale and small-scale farming This study seeks to reveal how the government's COVID-19 containment measures have affected the agricultural sector and their impact on farmers' lifestyle changes This study employed qualitative research methods, with primary and secondary data sources, and conducted in-depth interviews with 12 farmers and agricultural producers of Gatanga Sub-county in Murang'a County, Kenya This study shows that the farmers experienced economic shocks owing to the fluctuated farm gate prices and projected resource scarcity In contrast, their lifestyle changed due to income decrease and adjustment of commodity priorities and socio-demographic factors The severity of COVID-19 impact on agriculture in the Gatanga Sub-County has been doubled by crop destruction, planting delays, and heavy rains that influence scarcity of food commodities The study recommends other research to evaluate alternative solutions to supply the county's food outputs other than those already in co-operatives, like tea, coffee, milk, and avocados Moreover, perhaps the question for other future researchers should now be directed toward the vulnerable families' daily consumptions to fulfill their food needs
