Entrepreneurial youths from Homa Bay County undertaking agricultural project on insect production will benefit from 1.5 million Youth Enterprise Development Fund (YEDF) as a startup capital.

Mr Daniel Mathenge who is the YEDF Senior commercial infrastructure officer said the agency will engage Homa Bay youths in the production of the insect and later longing the same project in other counties.
