Method and technique

Komaza employs an innovative microforestry model that partners with smallholder farmers in Kenya to transform underutilized land into productive tree farms. The process begins with Komaza providing farmers with high-quality seedlings, inputs, and comprehensive training tailored to local conditions. Throughout the growth cycle, which spans seven to eight years, Komaza offers ongoing technical support and maintenance assistance, ensuring optimal tree development. In return for exclusive harvesting rights, Komaza manages the harvesting, processing, and sale of the mature trees, guaranteeing farmers above-market prices upon harvest. This partnership not only generates significant income for farmers but also promotes sustainable land use and reforestation. By leveraging existing farmland and labor, Komaza's model reduces the need for large-scale plantations, offering a scalable and cost-effective solution to meet Africa's growing wood demand while fostering economic empowerment among rural communities.
