Sustainable Livestock Management
At Silgama Beef (SEZ), sustainability is embedded in everything we do. Our position within a Special Economic Zone enables us to integrate advanced sustainable practices while maintaining cost-effective operations.
Key Sustainable Practices
We believe that the future of agriculture in Kenya hinges on the careful stewardship of resources, and our farm is designed to meet this challenge.
Grass-Fed, Rotational Grazing
Our cattle are raised on a natural diet and allowed to graze in a rotational system. This practice enhances soil health and biodiversity, ensuring that the land remains productive for future generations.
Resource Management
Our SEZ status allows us to maximize efficiency in energy and water usage. We harness renewable energy sources and implement water-saving measures that contribute to both sustainability and cost reduction.
Biodiversity Preservation
Protecting the local ecosystem is central to our mission. By preserving native species and maintaining natural habitats, we contribute to the overall environmental health of the Masongaleni region.
Waste Management
We reduce waste by recycling organic material, turning it into compost to enrich our soil and reduce reliance on chemical fertilizers.
