What affects maize prices in Kenya?

Fresh produce prices move fast because supply and demand shift week to week. The biggest drivers are:
  • Seasonality and harvest cycles — prices fall during peak harvest and rise in the off-season.
  • Rainfall and weather, which change how much reaches the market and its quality.
  • Transport costs from the farm to the market — fuel and distance are priced into every bag.
  • Local gluts and shortages — one county can be oversupplied while another runs short.
  • Grade and quality — Grade 1 and well-sorted produce fetch a clear premium.
  • Demand from towns, schools, hotels and other bulk buyers.
