Os preços e mercados são elementos importantes nas decisões dos produtores, tanto na lógica da maximização do lucro como na da auto-suficiência alimentar, considerando os custos de oportunidade comparativamente com outros bens, com a utilização da mão-de-obra familiar na exploração agrícola e o assalariamento e com alocação de outros factores de produção. Os preços, associados a outros elementos, são factores determinantes da competitividade da produção doméstica, tanto para as exportações como para a substituição de importações.

Despite their importance, land and environment in Kenya have suffered decades of mismanagement that has led to the current state of degradation.
