Crop protection has been conducted and documented in Kenya since the turn of the century, but much of it has not been readily accessible. Every Kenyan research station since at least 1907 has published annual reports. The purpose of this review is to document these reports, as well as papers in refereed journals on crop protection topics of concern to smallholder agriculture. The review covers all crop protection topics concerned with pest and disease incidence and the emphasis is on in-country research relevant to smallholder plantings of vegetable and other food crops in Kenya. The document is arranged in three sections: pre-harvest (including pesticide analysis and residues), post-harvest (mainly storage of durable products) and a short chapter on socio-economic aspects. The bibliography contains over 900 references. A review of crop protection research in Kenya edited by G. Farrell G. Kibata and J Sutherland 1995 165pp ISBN 9966 9604 0 6 KARl National Agricultural Research Laboratories PO Box 14733, Nairobi, KENYA
