I would not be in a hurry to farm in narok. been there,nikachomeka mbaya! two things you eed to do before you farm 1. buy a tractor and a jembe 2. visit narok during the rainy season and harvesting time. you will avoid leasing those farms that flood! witha tractor,you will recoup your money even before planting!

EABL are thieves! they overprice their fertilizer,seeds and chemicals. and then dictate the price of the the barley. 2 yrs ago,they bought at 1400,1300,1200! for the diff grades. mark you,the highest cost of farming is not in fertilizer,seeds,chemical its in plough,harrowx3 and planting. if you cost(fert 3500+seed2500) vs (plough2500,H1 2000,H2 1500,H31200,planting 1200)!
