Reuben Chumba BulunguReuben Chumba is a native of Western Kenya, with deep roots in agriculture. He grew up on a small-scale tea farm at Kapsabet, Nandi County, where he would spend most of his school holidays playing Ajua with his age set, while marvelling at the ambiene of a nearby glade. His passion for the conserved environment and anything botanical makes him at ease with nature and humour.
For over 30 years, he has been actively engaged with agricultural extension and rural development work, traversing various parts of Kenya on a tour of duty, and has also spent considerable time travelling locally and abroad in Tanzania, Uganda and China for bench-marking. Reuben is a graduate of the University of Nairobi with BSc in Agriculture and Maseno University, Kenya, with an MSc in Botany. He is author of the first book: Intercropping Maize and Artemisia in Africa with five related scientific journal papers.
A father of four, Reuben is a member of the East African Wildlife Society, the Kenya Society of Agricultural Professionals and Agricultural Society of Kenya. Read More Read Less
