Application of agronomic principles to the production of banana, coffee, cocoa, tea, sugar cane, citrus, and other fruit crops within East African environments. 4.

Due to standing measures put in place to fight COVID-19 a deadly viral disease, which has affected the entire world, our lectures will be purely virtual. So please adjust accordingly to fit in the NEW NORMAL. Let us not lose hope because in Isaiah 14: 27 (God tells us that; "His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back"). This implies that Our God will take through this storm and one life will come back to normal.
Be blessed!
