Kenya's land area under crop farming rose by 126 percent over three decades to reach 7.8 million hectares, according to the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics.
The increase from 3.46 million hectares was driven by conversions of grasslands, according to KNBS data reported by KBC.
Maize, the country's main staple food, realized the biggest gain in production, with output increasing by one million tons, according to the report.
