NAPRO SMP 2031 Elephant grass production in Kenia and valorization towards fodder and biobased packaging materials (BO-69-002-009)

The project aims to set up a business case for growing and valorization of Elephant grass for applications in feed and packaging materials in Kenya. The project will explore this businesscase, but has also the ambition to contribute to improving the dairy production system in Kenia in the direction of circular farming, to find alternatives for unsustainable practices as grazing cows in woodlands, soil degradation and offering alternatives for fossil based packaging materials.
