From Berlin to Kilifi
Every farm starts with a first step. For Keragita Farms, that step was taken from Berlin — where the founder, Desmond Momanyi Mariita, combined years of data governance experience with a deeply personal connection to Kenya’s agricultural potential.
The Land
Six acres in Gongoni Ward, Magarini Sub-County, Kilifi County. Coastal Kenya. The land is real, the operations are active, and the journey is just beginning.
What We’re Growing
Our current operations include goats and sheep for livestock, plus green grams and maize as our staple crops. These are the foundations — the proven, traditional farming practices that sustain the operation while we plan our technology integration.
What Comes Next
Precision agriculture. Data-driven decisions. IoT sensors for soil moisture monitoring. Drone-based crop assessment. But we’re honest about where we are: these are plans, not claims. When we deploy technology, you’ll read about it here — including what works and what doesn’t.
Building in Public
This journal is our commitment to transparency. We’ll share our successes and our failures. Real data, real challenges, real progress. That’s what “From Tractor to Data” means.
