80% of the milk produced in Kenya comes from smallholder dairy farmers1, which are family run businesses. Local communities have
been urgently seeking a solution to reduce animal feed losses caused by traditional storage methods and increasingly challenging climate
conditions.To help farmers overcome these challenges, Dow and Packaging Industries Limited (PIL) have joined forces. By combining PIL’s vast
agricultural experience with Dow’s material science and sustainability expertise, they co-developed Mama Silage Bags.

Thanks to Mama Silage Bag’sinnovation, farmers can now better manage their animal feed needs and maximize outputs, resultingin consistency in milk production. With that comes a sustainable income over the whole year, less dependent on seasonal fluctuations.
