From 1 cow to 150 cows in 3 years: The power of good management

Njenga Mabati may be known for his hardware business success in Kiambu county, Kenya. But his unspoken success in the dairy sector needs attention. That’s because he engaged the services of a young Gen-Z female vet officer and tasked her with growing his one inherited cow to a happy herd of 150 cows and growing. Njenga Mabati’s DY farm seating on 200 x100 also hosts a block of flats for tenants that provides auxiliary income and the tenants buy both his milk and are serviced by the biogas from the cow waste which they use for cooking. Nothing seems to go to waste at DY farm and the young energetic manager, Mary Nduta seems to be saying, ‘you haven’t seen anything yet.’
