It contributes directly 27% of GDP; 65% of export earnings; and 27% of the GDP indirectly through links with manufacturing, distribution and service-related sectors. However, Kenyan agriculture, 98% of which is rain-fed, is highly and increasingly vulnerable to erratic and extreme weather, including prolonged droughts and flooding, which are increasing in frequency and intensity with climate change.
