Kenyan graduates turn to AI tools for farming as jobs dry up

Chepkorir Rotich, a 33-year-old graduate from Kericho County, Kenya, abandoned the search for a white-collar job and turned to farming. She uses social media and AI tools to market her produce and learn modern methods. Many young Kenyans, facing a lack of formal jobs, are resorting to agriculture and digital skills to survive. Rotich challenges the notion that the average African farmer is 60 years old, arguing that young people should embrace farming as a livelihood.
