FOREWORD

the country as well as creating income and wealth for large and small scale farmers.

Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS) plays an important role in ensuring the Kenya’s economic growth is sustained as envisaged in Vision 2030. In its two decades of existence, the Corporation has focused on delivering its mandate and has established strong systems and processes that ensure high quality agricultural inputs and produce in the sector. KEPHIS ensures that its mandate is achieved through development of 5 year strategic plans.

I am pleased to unveil this 2017/18-2021/22 KEPHIS Strategic Plan, which provides the road map for meeting our vision of “Healthy plants, safe trade and sustainable agro-environment for a prosperous Kenya.” In developing this strategic plan, the Corporation has taken into consideration key Government priorities outlined in the Constitution,:the Vision 2030, MTP III, the Big 4 Agenda, the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Irrigation (MOALFI) Strategic Plan, the Agriculture Sector Transformation and Growth Strategy (ASTGS) and other relevant policy documents together with challenges faced in the implementation of the previous strategic plan and lessons learnt. In addition, considerations have been made to capture relevant areas in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the African Union Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP), African Union (AU) Agenda 2063 as well as other regional and International policy documents.

In Developing this Strategic Plan, it was important to look back and review the past. It is worth noting that the agriculture sector is dynamic and the operating environment has changed drastically in the last five years. The development of this Plan has gone through a review of the KEPHIS 2012/13-2016/17 Strategic Plan and a participatory consultation process among the key stakeholders, management, Board of Directors and staff.

The process reviewed the vision, mission and core values and agreed on the strategic objectives to pursue in realizing our mandate. Based on this contextual analysis, the Corporation formulated strategic objectives focusing on: protecting plants from pests, weeds and invasive species; improving the legal and regulatory framework;

The Government of Kenya through its economic Blueprint, Vision 2030 seeks to propel the country

to achieving economic development with an average 10 percent growth rate that will enhance the country’s status to a middle-income economy. The Agriculture sector continues to take centre stage and remains the main catalyst of Kenya’s economic growth. During the second Medium Term Plan (MTP) period (2013-2017) growing crops and livestock production contributed an average of 27.3% of the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP). According to the Kenya National Economic Survey 2017, contribution to GDP by crops and livestock, consistently improved from 26.2% in 2012 to 32.6% in 2016 thus making it the dominant sector. The sector contributes about 75% of industrial raw materials, 60% of export earnings, 65% of Kenya’s total exports by volume and 60% of employment. Various agricultural sub-sectors, including Tea, Coffee and Horticulture rank as the highest foreign exchange earners for the country. At the domestic level, the need for sustained agricultural productivity is crucial in ensuring food security for

enhancing agricultural productivity; facilitating trade; enhancing the Corporation’s and stakeholder capacity; mobilizing and ensuring optimal utilization of resources and embarking on aggressive visibility and corporate image.

Sustainability remains a major factor amid adjustments in budgetary allocations from The Exchequer. In this regard, the Corporation shall focus under the Resource Mobilization and Management theme on strategies to enhance the Corporation’s revenue streams and new service areas that shall boost the organization’s financial resource base. This shall go a long way in ensuring that KEPHIS sustains its operations and fulfills its mandate.

The KEPHIS Board of Directors is committed to the implementation of the Corporation’s Strategic plan. The Board will work towards sustaining existing linkages with all the relevant Government Ministries, Departments and Agencies and other stakeholders to ensure coherence and enhance synergies in delivery of its mandate.

Implementation of the Strategic Plan will be regularly monitored and evaluated by the Board

and management to ensure that emerging issues are identified and addressed promptly. Changes in the operational environment; emerging government policies and statutory requirements; resource availability and recommendations arising from the continuous monitoring, evaluation and reporting framework will be taken into consideration during the mid-term review of the Plan. The Board shall also ensure performance management continues to be the main measure of the Corporation’s service delivery, and shall continuously strive to serve our clients as effectively and efficiently as possible.

I take this opportunity to thank the entire team involved in the formulation of this Strategic Plan, including the Board of Directors, management, key stakeholders and staff for their unreserved commitment to the process. The Board of Directors have no doubt whatsoever that the 2017/18 - 2021/22 Strategic Plan will be successfully implemented.

PREFACE

It is my pleasure to present to you the KEPHIS Strategic Plan 2017/2018 - 2021/2022. This is

indeed a great moment and milestone for the Corporation, having gone through two decades of existence as a Corporation.

KEPHIS has grown tremendously in the past twenty years of its existence with key notable achievements being: enactment and operationalization of the KEPHIS Act, enhanced use of technology through implementation of Entreprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Electronic Certification Systems (ECS), accreditation of laboratories, certification to Quality Management Systems (QMS), compliance with market requirements and capacity building of staff and clients.

The operations of KEPHIS are within the confines of the KEPHIS Act 2012, the State Corporations Act (CAP 446), the Seeds and Plant Varieties Act (CAP 326) and the Plant Protection Act (CAP 324). Kenya is also a signatory to various international conventions and treaties which KEPHIS implements. These include OECD Fruit and Vegetables Schemes, OECD Seed Schemes and OECD Forest Seed and Plant Scheme, the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC), International Union for the Protection of New Varieties

of Plant (UPOV), The World Trade Organization-Sanitary and Phytosanitary Agreement (WTO-SPS), CODEX Alimentarius Commission, Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) and East African Community (EAC), among others. KEPHIS also participates in regional and international standard setting and harmonization meetings to facilitate compliance to set standards. In this new strategic plan, KEPHIS will strengthen its legal and regulatory framework and continue to partner with regional and international bodies for the benefit of its clientele. In the past strategic planning period, KEPHIS assured the quality of seed, fertilizers, water for irrigation suitability, soil and pesticide formulations. This was made possible through KEPHIS accredited laboratories at Karen (Headquarters), Muguga, Nakuru and Kitale. Re-accreditation of the laboratories to ISO 17025 was achieved during the period for the Analytical Chemistry Laboratory at Headquarters and the seed testing laboratory in Nakuru. The Plant Health Laboratory, at the Plant Quarantine and Bio-Security station attained its accreditation in 2013/2014. This has been a major confidence booster especially for clients undertaking entomology, virology, nematology, bacteriology and mycology related tests.

Plant health is a core area for KEPHIS and in retrospect, the country has gone through numerous challenges in terms of crop pest and disease emergence that included Leaf miner(Tuta absoluta), Maize Lethal Necrosis Disease (MLND), Potato Cyst Nematode (PCN) and Fall Army Worm (FAW). In the new strategic plan, KEPHIS intends to work with partners and other agencies in developing strong Early Warning Systems for plant pests and for early detection and management. The Corporation shall also put in place a research unit to work with other research agencies as a compliment in the fight against introduction of harmful organisms in the country. Enhancement of surveillance activities and border control will also be ensured as a critical step towards protecting Kenya’s agriculture.

Capacity building remains a key focus area for KEPHIS with enhanced ICT Systems. During the period, the Corporation expanded the ECS to include other fresh produce crops and launched the Import Certification System (ICS) for certification of plant imports and integrated it to the Kenya National Single Window System. The Corporation also implemented interventions towards capacity building of both staff

The hass avocado variety: Kenya’s avocadoes are the best in the world and KEPHIS works with other agencies to open up markets where the fruit can be exported

and clients. During the previous planning period, KEPHIS in collaboration with the University of Nairobi, Centre of African Biosciences International (CABI) and other partners continued to operationalize the Centre of Phytosanitary Excellence (COPE) and trained practitioners in the horticultural sector at local and regional levels. The Corporation intends to strengthen COPE into an independent centre and streamline its operations to attract more support and clients.

KEPHIS will also focus on building capacity for farmers and players in county governments as a way of ensuring compliance to standards at the grass root levels. This is expected to enhance productivity and create market access for local agricultural produce. The Corporation shall also sustain progress on staff skill development to meet the necessary competencies required for the agriculture sector.

Performance Management with emphasis on results-based management has taken centre stage with KEPHIS prioritizing the implementation of the Kenya Government Performance Contracting system. In addition, the Corporation has successfully subscribed to, and maintained certification to the ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System. In the next planning phase, the Corporation will transit to the ISO 9001:2015 requirements.

Strategies that help optimization of resource use and allocation shall be deployed in order to ensure

sustainability for the Corporation. To implement the Strategic Plan, the estimated budget is KES 7.825 billion. KEPHIS intends to enhance networks and collaboration with local and international development partners with a view to exploring avenues of cooperation in the areas of plant protection, seed trade facilitation and laboratory work. The concept of Public-Private-Partnership will also be enhanced in various aspects and operations of the Corporation with the view of creating more business models.

KEPHIS takes cognizance of the Corporation’s visibility and brand. Re-engineering of the KEPHIS brand will be one of the key focus areas in the implementation of this Strategy and will endeavour to build and maintain a strong corporate brand.

The Corporation shall implement a robust monitoring framework that will track performance on a continuous basis to ensure that planned strategies, objectives and activities are achieved. KEPHIS is confident that with the support of all stakeholders and partners, we shall attain our vision of “Healthy Plants, Safe Trade and Sustainable Agro-Environment for a Prosperous Kenya.”

In conclusion, I take this opportunity to sincerely thank the Board, management and staff for the time invested in the development of this Strategic Plan.

1. INTRODUCTION1.1 Background

The Agriculture sector continues to take centre stage and remains the main catalyst of Kenya’s economic growth. During the second Medium Term Plan (MTP) period (2013-2017) growing crops and livestock production contributed an average of 27.3% of the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP). According to the Kenya National Economic Survey 2017, contribution to GDP by crops and livestock, consistently improved from 26.2% in 2012 to 32.6% in 2016 thus making it the dominant sector. The sector contributes about 75% of industrial raw materials, 60% of export earnings, 65% of Kenya’s total exports by volume and 60% of employment.

1.2 Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS)

Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS) is a regulatory body that was established under the State Corporations Act (CAP 446) pursuant to Legal Notice No. 305 of 18th October 1996. KEPHIS operates under the KEPHIS Act No.54 of 2012. KEPHIS is mandated to implement the Agriculture Produce (Export) Act (CAP 319), Plant Protection Act (CAP 324), and the Seeds and Plant Varieties Act (CAP 326). The role of the Corporation is to undertake regulatory function in the agricultural sector in matters relating to plant protection, seeds and plant varieties that assures the quality of agricultural inputs and produce, thereby promoting sustainable agricultural and economic growth.

The functions of KEPHIS as encapsulated in the KEPHIS Act No. 54 of 2012 are to: (a). Regulate matters relating to plant protection,

seeds and plant varieties; (b). Administer and enforce Sanitary and

Phytosanitary measures; (c). Support the administration and enforcement of

food safety measures; (d). Establish service laboratories to monitor the

quality and levels of toxic residues in agro-inputs, irrigation water, plants, soils and produce;

(e). Be the principal advisor to the Government on issues relating to seeds and planting material;

(f). Implement plant variety protection in Kenya, administer plant breeders’ rights and maintain

the Plant Breeders’ Rights Register; (g). Undertake plant variety testing and description,

seed certification and plant quarantine control; (h). Undertake inspection and grading of plants and

plant produce at the ports of entry and exit; (i). In consultation with other relevant agencies,

develop and implement standards for seed and plant materials;

(j). Implement and enforce national biosafety regulations on the introduction and use of genetically or living modified species of plants, insects and micro-organisms, plant products and other related species;

(k). Regulate import and export of plants and plant materials;

(l). In consultation with other relevant agencies, regulate the commercial exploitation of naturally occurring plants and plant-related micro-organisms;

(m). Register and license seed merchants, seed growers, agents and any other person who may be required to be registered under the provisions of this Act or any of the laws specified in the First Schedule;

(n). Enter into association with such other bodies or organizations or authorized persons as the Board may consider desirable or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes for which the Service is established;

(o). Be the liaison office for international conventions relating to plant variety protection, plant protection, seed certification and dealing with endangered species or any other related conventions.

KEPHIS as a science-based organization relies heavily on technology in its functions for delivery on the institutional mandate. There were technological advancements in many areas including laboratory testing/diagnostics and ICT during the implementation of the 2013-2017 strategic plan. Changes in Sanitary and Phytosanitary standards in the international markets and emerging issues (pests and diseases) led to new challenges in meeting market requirements. The dynamic environment under which KEPHIS operates called for a review of the strategic objectives to guide the institution.

1.3 The Strategic Planning Process

The process of developing this Plan relied heavily on an extensive review of the relevant documents including the Constitution of Kenya (2010), Vision

Page 17: Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS) · Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS) plays an important role in ensuring the Kenya’s economic growth is sustained

KEPHIS STRATEGIC PLANPage 3

2030, MTP I, MTP II, MTP III, ASTGS (2019 to 2029), ASDS (2010 to 2020) and other documents in the agriculture sector. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect primary data from the Board, Senior Management and Heads of Department. The questionnaire elicited information on past performance, current status and the projected operating environment of KEPHIS. More information was collected through key informant interviews and observation. The pertinent data was analyzed to identify and prioritize the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats facing KEPHIS. This further culminated in the identification of strategic issues and development of the strategic framework in terms of the vision, mission, core values, objectives and strategies.

Finally, a strategy planning workshop was held at KEPHIS headquarters on June 16, 2017 with the Board, Senior Management and heads of departments in attendance. The workshop formulated the Vision and Mission statements as well as core values. On the basis of the revised mission, vision and core values, objectives were developed, and relevant

strategies crafted. Thereafter a two-day workshop was held at KEPHIS headquarters on June 21st and 22nd, 2017 with senior management and heads of departments to develop the implementation matrices. The document was further reviewed in February 2019 to align it with the MTP III, Big 4 Agenda and the ASTGS. The process also included consultative meetings with staff and other stakeholders.

1.4 Organization of the Plan

The Plan is organized in seven chapters. Chapter 1 outlines the introduction and background giving the justification for developing the Plan. Chapter 2 presents Kenya’s Achievements and Development Challenges while the Situation Analysis is contained in Chapter 3. The Strategic Framework is explained in Chapter 4. Chapter 5 focuses on how the Plan will be implemented while Chapter 6 presents the resource flows, revenue and expenditure projections. Chapter 7 summarizes the monitoring and evaluation mechanism of the Plan.

2. KENYA’S CHALLENGES IN THE AGRICULTURE SECTOR, DEVELOPMENT AGENDA AND ACHIEVEMENTS

The Vision 2030, MTP III and the ASTGS describe the emerging issues, challenges and lessons learnt in Kenya’s agricultural sector.

2.1 Kenya Vision 2030

Kenya Vision 2030 is the Country’s development blueprint covering the period between 2008 and 2030. It aims at transforming Kenya into a newly industrialized, middle-income country providing a high-quality life to all its citizens by the year 2030. The blueprint is anchored on three pillars: economic, social and political.

The economic pillar consists of eight priority sectors: agriculture and livestock, manufacturing, tourism, trade, business process outsourcing, financial services, Oil, Gas and mineral resources and the Blue Economy. Agriculture is expected to deliver seven per cent annual economic growth rate envisaged under the economic pillar. To achieve this growth, transforming smallholder agriculture from subsistence to an innovative, commercially oriented and modern agricultural sector is critical. This transformation is to be accomplished through transforming key institutions in agriculture, livestock, forestry and wildlife to promote agricultural growth; increasing productivity of crops, livestock and tree cover; introducing land-use policies for better use of high- and medium-potential lands; developing more irrigable areas in arid and semi-arid lands for both crops and livestock; improving market access for smallholders through better supply chain management; and adding value to farm, livestock and forestry products before they reach local, regional and international markets.

The Vision 2030 has identified four major challenges that continue to face the agricultural sector. These are: • Productivity levels for many crops are below

potential and for some agricultural produce

yield and value over a 5-year period have either remained constant or are on the decline. Although yield is only a partial gauge of performance, it reflects the available production technology. Using the United States maize yield of 10.75 metric tonnes per hectare, in one of the states, as a benchmark the Kenyan 5.0 metric tonnes per hectare can be improved. Forest cover and tree productivity have been on the decline while population growth has led to increased human–wildlife conflict. Forest cover is estimated at 7% against the United Nations recommendation of 10%.

• Land in the high and medium potential areas as well as in arid and semi-arid lands (ASALs) remains under-exploited for agricultural production. Much of the available cropland remains under-utilised with smallholder farmers using only 60% of their land for agricultural production. About 84% of the country is ASAL and is not suitable for rain-fed farming due to low and erratic rainfall. Development of suitable plant varieties and irrigation for these areas will improve productivity. It is estimated that intensified irrigation can increase agricultural productivity fourfold and, depending on the crops and varieties, incomes can be increased.

• The productivity of the agricultural sector is constrained by inefficiencies in the supply chain resulting from limited storage capacity, lack of post-harvest services and poor access to product markets. Vision 2030 calls for proactive efforts to maintain existing markets and create new ones to increase Kenya’s bargaining power in global agricultural markets. The Kenya Flower Council estimates that there are over 60 markets worldwide for horticulture produce; however North America, Asia and Middle East markets remain underexploited.

• In agriculture, value addition determines the competitiveness of the country’s produce in world markets. However, Kenyan farmers export semi-processed, low-value produce, which accounts for 91 per cent of total agriculture-related exports. The limited ability to add value to agricultural produce coupled with high production costs make exports less competitive. According to a study done by Tea Board of Kenya in 2012 there was a price difference of USD 1.24 per kilogram of tea between Kenya and Sri Lanka, owing to value addition; this is the estimated loss per kilogram of tea sold in Kenya due to low value addition. Value addition would

not only earn Kenya more foreign exchange but will also create jobs.

The Government will play its contributing component towards achievement of the Kenya Vision 2030 by; (i) transforming key institutions to promote agricultural growth; (ii) enhancing agricultural productivity; (iii) introducing land use polices for better utilization of high and medium potential lands; (iv) developing more irrigable areas in arid and semi-arid lands for agricultural production; (v) improving market access for farmers through better supply chain management; and (vi) adding value to farm and produce before they reach local and international markets.

2.2 The Third Medium Term Plan (2018 to 2022)

The Vision 2030 is being implemented through five-year medium-term plans (MTPs); already MTP II and III have been implemented. The MTP III to be implemented during the period 2018 to 2022, outlines the main policies, legal and institutional reforms as well as programmes and projects that the government plans to achieve. It builds on the achievements of the 1st and 2nd MTPs. It prioritizes implementation of the Big 4 Agenda initiatives which are; increasing manufacturing share of GDP, providing affordable housing, enhancing food and nutrition security and achieving 100% universal health coverage.The agriculture sector is expected to play a significant role of ensuring food and nutrition security as well as driving the manufacturing sector through the provision of raw materials.

The MTP III, whose theme is: Transforming Lives Advancing Socio-economic Development through the “Big Four”, builds on the gains made so far by previous MTPs (I&II). MTP III envisages to move the economy towards a growth trajectory to achieve the 7 percent economic growth rate and achieve goals and targets outlined under the economic, social and political pillars of Kenya Vision 2030 by 2022. The MTP III implementation will be aligned to the Constitution, Vision 2030, key policies, legal and institutional requirements towards attainment of the “Big Four” initiatives and other priority programmes and projects.

Under this MTP III, the agriculture and livestock sectors will focus on the following Flagship projects and programmes: Agricultural Mechanization; Food

and Nutrition Security; Livestock Production; Value Chain Support; Youth and Women Empowerment in Modern Agriculture; Agricultural Insurance; Research and Capacity Building; Crop Diversification; Coastal Disease Free Zone; Strategic Food Reserve; Large Scale Production; Small Holder Productivity and Agro-processing; Agricultural Technology Development; Market Access and Product Development; Miraa Farmers Livelihood Improvement; Pastoral Resilience Building; Traditional High Value Crops; Comprehensive African Agricultural Development Program (CAADP) and Promotion of Investment and Cooperation in Agriculture.

2.3 Agriculture Sector Transformation and Growth Strategy (ASTGS)

The Agriculture Sector Growth and Transformation Strategy (ASTGS) is to be implemented from 2019 to 2029 and builds upon the Agriculture Sector Development Strategy (ASDS) of 2010 to 2020. The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Irrigation (MOALF&I) has focused on nine flagship projects that serve as the core programmes for the 10-year period. These flagship projects draw on the status of agriculture today, a rigorous and thorough review of data, lessons from global best practices and local realities. The flagship projects will also help to transform the agriculture sector in Kenya, drive 100% food and nutrition security and ensure food is affordable, especially for vulnerable groups. The nine flagship projects to drive Kenya’s 10-year transformation are as follows: • Flagship 1: Target 1 million farmers, pastoralists

and fishermen in an initial 40 zones served by 1,000 farmer-facing SMEs that provide inputs and equipment including for irrigation, processing and post-harvest aggregation.

• Flagship 2: Shift nationwide subsidies focus to register 1.4 million high-needs farming households and empower them to access a range of inputs from multiple providers, enabled by an e-voucher delivery system.

• Flagship 3: Set-up 6 agro-processing hubs across Kenya using a one-stop-shop rapid PPP process for local and export markets.

• Flagship 4: Unlock 50 new large-scale private farms (each with over 2,500 acres) with 150,000 acres under sustainable irrigation from existing infrastructure (e.g., rehabilitate dams, dual-purpose hydropower), with competitive bidding, and government provided infrastructure (e.g.

KEPHIS STRATEGIC PLANPage 7

power, roads)• Flagship 5: Restructure the Strategic Food

Reserve (SFR) to better serve 4 million high need Kenyans through competitive digital reserve stock and cost management with private sector, and price stability managed through the National Treasury.

• Flagship 6: Boost food resilience of 1.2 million farming and pastoralist households in ASAL through community driven design of interventions, and more active coordination of development partners and private sector resources through regional economic blocs.

• Flagship 7: Launch 3 knowledge and skills building programs focused on technical and management skills in the field for 200 national and county government transformation leaders, 1000 farmer-facing SMEs, and 3000 extension agents.

• Flagship 8: Strengthen research and innovation, and launch priority digital and data use cases for better decision making and performance management (first wave to include digital subsidy registration and delivery, farmer and SME performance, automated SFR buy / sell needs)

• Flagship 9: Actively monitor 2 key food system risks: i. sustainable and climate smart natural resource management including sustainable irrigation and water basin health, soil quality and land use; and ii. Crisis management for pests, diseases, climate and global price shocks.

2.4 Emerging Issues and Challenges in the Agricultural Sector

Emerging issues include:

• Multiplicity of taxes, levies and charges by the national and county governments;

• Agri-business as a source of mass employment.

Challenges facing the agricultural sector include:

• High reliance on rain-fed agriculture;• The increased frequency of severe droughts and

floods and outbreak of pests and disease as a result of global climate change;

• Sub-division of land into small uneconomic units and under-utilized land in some parts of the country;

• Low agricultural productivity due to low

application of modern technology and innovation, inadequate capital and demand-driven research;

• Low and declining soil fertility due to poor farming methods;

• Frequent resource-use conflict between pastoralists and farmers;

• Pre and post-harvest losses due to inadequate storage facilities and poor handling of farm produce;

• Inadequate extension capacity;• Export restrictions on agricultural produce;• Limited access to affordable credit;• Inadequate and poorly organized market access

and marketing infrastructure;• High cost of farm inputs;• Poor physical infrastructure network in the rural

areas;• Inequality in resource access, ownership and

control at household level;• Underdeveloped agricultural value chain;• Inadequate data for policy planning and

development;• Weak monitoring and evaluation systems.

Lessons Learnt in the agricultural sector include:

• A robust response to climate change should be part of overall planning with special emphasis on agriculture;

• Improved linkages and strong collaboration with all the stakeholders are key in ensuring food security;

• Evidence based policy planning and strengthening of monitoring and evaluation is critical at all levels of governance;

• Adoption of production methods that complement rain-fed agriculture is key to ensuring food security.

2.5 Role of Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS) in contributing towards the Kenya Development Agenda

KEPHIS plays a critical role in the realization of the aspirations of the goals of all the three pillars of the Vision 2030. Towards meeting the Economic pillar goals and the SDG Goal Number 1 of no poverty and Number 2 of Zero hunger by increasing agricultural productivity and Food Security, KEPHIS does the following:

Page 22: Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS) · Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS) plays an important role in ensuring the Kenya’s economic growth is sustained

KEPHIS STRATEGIC PLANPage 8

• Inspection and certification of imports and exports of plants and plant produce;

• Awareness creation and training on Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and market requirements thus enhancing investment in agriculture for wealth creation;

• Negotiations aimed at increasing market access for Kenyan agricultural products and produce which in turn contributes to economic growth;

• Providing pest risk analysis information for market access;

• Ensuring quality seed production in irrigation schemes by offering certification services in these areas;

• Undertake testing of soils for fertility evaluation, water for irrigation suitability, fertilizers, manures and agro-chemicals for quality assurance to facilitate optimal productivity;

• Undertake pest and disease surveillance to provide early warning systems to all within the

farming system;• Testing of food commodities of agricultural origin

is also done to ensure compliance to food safety requirements. This contributes immensely to enhancement of the competitiveness of Kenyan products and hence an increase in their market access.

• Contributes to value addition through advisory services to farmers and inspection of produce.

• The strategic shift from over-reliance on rain-fed to irrigation agriculture has created increased demand for seed in new irrigation schemes.

The Social Pillar seeks to achieve a just, cohesive and equitable social development in a clean and secure environment. Towards meeting this pillar’s goals, KEPHIS does the following:• Monitoring environmental contaminants, level of

pesticide residues, heavy metals and industrial pollutants in ecological and environmental

substrates, agricultural produce, foods and feeds. These are undertaken with a view to enhancing food safety and sustenance of environmentally friendly agriculture.

• Undertakes effective inspection and monitoring to guard against introduction and spread of noxious weeds and invasive plant species.

• Facilitating the availability of appropriate and climate-smart certified seed for the ASALs to ensure food security and nutrition.

The Political Pillar aims at an issue-based, people-centered, results-oriented and accountable democratic system. The implementation of activities towards customer-focused service delivery by KEPHIS are a key contribution towards this Pillar. Towards meeting the political pillar goals, KEPHIS does the following:• Observance of anti-corruption, ethics and

integrity principles;• Promotion of results-based management;• Facilitating public access to information and

data; • Implementation of service charters;

• Customer feedback mechanisms; • Publicity campaigns; • Provision of information on the Corporation’s

activities; • Sensitization and training of stakeholders; • Improvement in financial management.

An efficient, motivated and well-trained public service is one of the major foundations of the Kenya Vision 2030. Indeed, public service transformation is identified as key towards actualizing the goals of the Kenya Vision 2030. Towards this, KEPHIS continues to scale-up efforts to cascade the service charter; undertake capacity building of members of staff to enhance service delivery; implement the automation of service delivery processes to improve efficiency and speed; and review terms and conditions of members of staff. All these are implemented to ensure that KEPHIS plays its rightful role in the realization of the goals of the Kenya Vision 2030. KEPHIS will continue to implement its mandate to address the challenges identified in the agriculture sector under the MTP III.

Source: KEPHIS Annual Reports

3.3.2.2. Human ResourceHuman resource is an important asset to the achievement of KEPHIS mandate and objectives. There is need for continuous investment for a highly skilled workforce to ensure effective response to opportunities and challenges of the industry in a timely and appropriate manner in an ever changing market environment. Therefore, KEPHIS will attract and recruit employees with requisite skills to maintain optimal number of staff. Further, the corporation will review the current organization structure; train and develop staff; implement a competitive compensation and reward system; implement an effective performance management system in order to retain and maintain a highly skilled workforce.

3.3.2.3. Legal and regulatory frameworkThe Corporation operates under the KEPHIS Act No. 54 of 2012, supporting Acts, regulations and policies. The KEPHIS Act stipulates the mandate and provides for structures necessary for effective service delivery. Due to the dynamic nature of the regulatory environment, there is need to formulate a national Sanitary and Phytosanitary policy; review

the national seed policy; review legal and regulatory framework for purposes of alignment to international frameworks and best practice as well as lobbying for enactment of revised legal and regulatory framework.

3.3.2.4. Information Communication TechnologyAdvances in information, communication and technology (ICT) continue to have decisive influences on operations of KEPHIS. Major strides have been made to improve the ICT infrastructure and systems namely; automation of human resource system, import and export electronic systems, initiation of the automation of the seed certification & plant variety system. KEPHIS will during the plan period, seek to leverage on the latest and most competitive ICT in order to enhance its service delivery processes.

3.3.2.5. Strategic Linkages and Alliances KEPHIS has established strategic linkages and alliances with various international, regional and local bodies for purposes of harmonization and implementation of standards and technology transfer. The corporation also participates in various forums and subscribes to various standard setting bodies, schemes, committees and journals for purposes of; supporting regulatory work, sharing information, continuous learning and aligning with best practices and developments in the agriculture sector. It is

5. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE STRATEGIC PLAN

5.1 IntroductionThis chapter provides a framework for operationalizing the strategic objectives through: enhanced organizational structure and human capacity; elaborated coordination mechanism with stakeholders; internal communication and reporting; management of various risk.

5.2 Implementation Plan The implementation plan sets the requisite framework upon which monitoring and evaluation of the strategic plan will be done by documenting what needs to be done, when it needs to be done, by whom and the resources needed. It helps in the appraisal of performance and in the identification of any remedial actions. It operationalizes the strategic objectives and leads to better motivation of staff through clear assignment of responsibilities for implementing and

monitoring programmes. The relevant implementation plan matrices for KEPHIS are presented in Annex 1.

The implementation plan will further be cascaded into Annual Operational Plans which will constitute Directorate Annual Work Plans. These will in turn form the basis of the Individual staff Annual Work Plans. It thus creates clear linkages between the individual’s work performance and the accomplishment of Strategic objectives, which in turn feed into the achievement of the national development agenda.5.3 Organizational Structure and Human

CapacityThe KEPHIS Organizational Structure is based on KEPHIS mandate as documented in the KEPHIS Act No. 54 of 2012 and is expected to deliver the strategic objectives. The structure has been enhanced to address emerging issues on biosecurity and food safety. Directorates and departments were formed; they will be staffed according to the functions inherent therein. Figure 1 shows the KEPHIS organizational structure.

KEPHIS STRATEGIC PLANPage 24

5.4 Coordination MechanismKEPHIS recognizes that the achievement of objectives, strategies and activities will require collaboration with various government ministries, departments, agencies (MDAs) and other stakeholders. In some cases, coordinating mechanisms already exist for actions that require cross-agency collaboration while in others, KEPHIS will have to establish similar coordinating mechanisms; this is depicted in Figure 2.

The internal coordination mechanism will be achieved through periodic meetings and reporting systems of various management and administrative organs of KEPHIS including the Board of Directors and its standing committees, the senior management and departmental committees, and other operational units in the organization structure. The implementation plan (Annex 1) shows what will be done and who will be responsible; it will also be a principal coordinative mechanism tool.

The operationalization of this coordination framework will be critical in realization of KEPHIS vision. KEPHIS will therefore maintain and enhance these stakeholder relationships.

5.5 AccountabilityGenerally, the Board of Directors will provide oversight, policy direction and evaluate the Plan’s implementation. The Managing Director will be responsible for the overall performance and provide leadership in the implementation of the Corporation’s strategies. Directors and Managers will be responsible for the day-to-day implementation, monitoring and evaluation of actual performance. The quantitative and qualitative targets in the Plan will be implemented through Annual Performance Contracts and targets in the individual staff work plans.

The implementation of this Plan requires proper utilization of financial, human and material resources. This demands that staff take responsibility and be accountable for their use. The implementation of the strategy depends significantly on how the planned activities and outputs are effectively delegated, monitored and evaluated. The organizational structure represents channels of communication; levels of authority; reporting systems as is illustrated in Figure 1.

7. MONITORING, EVALUATION AND REPORTING

7.1 Introduction

Monitoring the implementation of the strategic plan constitutes systematic tracking of activities and actions to assess progress. Progress will be measured against specific targets and timelines included in the Plan. The implementation plan helps staff to remain alert to any shortfalls or deviations and take early corrective action. Effective monitoring helps to identify difficulties and challenging areas, and to take immediate remedial action, thereby ensuring that the relevant targets are achieved. Regular reporting at all levels is necessary for follow-up and record keeping.

7.2 Strategies for Monitoring and Evaluation

7.2.1. Plan Implementation TeamA Strategic Plan Implementation Team will be appointed to follow up and ensure that strategies are being implemented, performance measured, progress reports are made and discussed, and corrective action is taken where necessary.

7.2.2. Cascading the Plan to all StaffThe Strategic Plan and its targets will be cascaded to all staff. This will help each member of staff to plan and implement the activities vis-à-vis their respective roles.

7.2.3. Departmental and Individual Annual Work Plans

Detailed annual work plans with clear performance indicators and assigned responsibilities will be developed for the Corporation and each staff. Key indicators that will inform management decision making will be identified and the frequency of reporting on these indicators will be determined. This will form the foundation of the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) system.

7.2.4. Data and Information Collection Procedures

Elaborate data and information collection templates and procedures will be developed to capture

performance as per the indicators and report appropriately to management. These procedures will be incorporated into existing and functional operating manuals so that they become part of regular work.

7.2.5. Regular/Periodic Meetings Monthly Review Meetings at the Departmental level will be scheduled to ensure implementation is on track. Quarterly review meetings at the Management level will be scheduled to get and give feedback on the pertinent performance indicators. The overall oversight of the Strategic Plan and its implementation is a critical role of the Board of Directors; progress reporting will be an agenda item in all Board Meetings.

7.3 Monitoring Tools

KEPHIS will apply both quantitative and qualitative tools to monitor performance of respective departments. The major techniques of monitoring and evaluation that shall be used are progress reports (monthly and quarterly), customer feedback, cost-benefit analysis, variance analysis, ratio analysis and budgets.

7.3.1. Customer feedback Customer satisfaction: KEPHIS shall undertake internal customer satisfaction surveys as well as independent surveys to establish customer perceptions and customer satisfaction index. Customer complaints: Customer complaints will be monitored and reported to the Commission on Administrative Justice (CAJ). An annual score shall be given by CAJ.Employee satisfaction surveys: KEPHIS shall undertake annual employee satisfaction surveys to determine the satisfaction levels of staff and draw recommendations for implementation towards improving their welfare.

7.3.2. Cost-benefit analysisCost-benefit analysis shall be done from time to time to evaluate the various activities and projects. This shall assist management in decision making and on what to prioritize in terms of strategy implementation.

7.3.3. Variance AnalysisThe Management will compare the performance targets with the actual results to reveal any variances. As a consequence of variance analysis and identification of causes, KEPHIS shall take

Page 46: Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS) · Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service (KEPHIS) plays an important role in ensuring the Kenya’s economic growth is sustained

KEPHIS STRATEGIC PLANPage 32

appropriate remedial actions.

7.3.4. Ratio AnalysisRatio analysis is concerned with efficiency of related objectives. Pertinent ratios will be calculated quarterly, semi-annually and annually and the actual results compared with the target ratios. The differences between target and actual ratios will be identified and analyzed. This analysis will invoke appropriate remedial actions. Trend analysis of the ratios will also be depicted to more clearly show which way the performance is heading.

7.3.5. Budgetary ControlUnder this monitoring and evaluation process, actual revenues and expenses will continually be checked against planned results and variances investigated. If necessary, action plans will be changed so that they are brought in line with the budgeted results or the budget will be amended to take account of new developments.

7.4 Progress Reports

Progress reports will regularly be prepared by the implementing Departments as per the budgetary cycles. The Strategic Plan Implementation Team

will assist the departments in preparation and presentation of reports. The reports will describe actions taken by the departments toward achieving specific outcomes and strategies of the Plan and may include costs, benefits, performance measures and progress to date.

7.5 Annual and End Term Review

At the end of each financial year, a report will be produced and released to the public. An end term review will also be carried out at the end of the financial year 2021/22 and the summary of the results in terms of lessons learnt presented. These lessons will inform the next planning cycle and the same shared with both internal and external stakeholders.

7.6 Linking M&E to Annual Performance Contracts

KEPHIS performance objectives (targets) will be translated into Directorate objectives which will in turn be translated into Departmental and Individual objectives and targets. Implementation will be in line with the Performance Contracting guidelines. The performance contract targets will inform KEPHIS staff performance appraisal and reward systems.
