Foreword
The implementation of the constitution created increased demand for comprehensive and
disaggregated statistical information to inform evidence based policy formulation, budgeting
process, monitoring and evaluation of various programmes both at the county and national
levels. It is for this reason that the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics, being the principal
agency of the Government for coordinating and supervising all official statistical programs
undertaken within the National Statistical System, has undertaken to produce this Count
Statistical Abstract (CSA) annually. The information published in this Abstract will address
data gaps at the county level to supplement other periodic surveys conducted by the Bureau
that equally provide useful indicators for various sectors.
The 2015 County Statistical Abstract is the first of its kind to be developed for Uasin Gishu
County and will subsequently be produced annually. This Abstract will be a single source of
information covering various sectors of the economy at the county level. The Abstract has
substantially benefited from the administrative data generated in the county. In addition, some
indicators were compiled from various survey reports and population and housing censuses.
This Abstract is expected to provide a reliable source of information for planning, policy
formulation, monitoring and evaluation processes. The data contained in this Abstract will,
therefore, enable data users to gauge the performance of the county.
In conclusion, there is need for collaborative efforts between the National and County
Governments in order to improve on the quality of statistical information, enhance
dissemination, and accessibility of statistics at the county level.

Population and Vital Statistics
This section provides information on population and vital statistics by census year, sex and
constituency; registration of births and deaths by place of occurrence in Uasin Gishu County.

Density: Refers number of persons per square kilometre, obtained by dividing the enumerated
persons in a given area by the size of the area expressed in km2.
Area: Is the extent of a surface enclosed within a specified boundary, expressed in square
kilometres. This excludes areas covered by water.
Birth: Birth is the complete expulsion or extraction from its mother of a product of conception,
irrespective of the duration of pregnancy.
Death: Death is the permanent disappearance of all evidence of life at any time after live birth
has taken place (postnatal cessation of vital functions without capability of resuscitation). This
definition excludes fetal deaths.
Expected Birth or Expected Death: Is derived from the prevailing fertility or mortality
conditions and total female population of reproductive age or the total population. The number
of expected births or deaths is calculated using age-specific birth and death rates.
Place of Occurrence: It is where birth or death occurs.
Coverage rate: Coverage rate is basically the percentage of registered events out of the total
number of expected events. Although the denominators ideally should be the total number of
events which occurred, the actual number of such events is unknown and hence estimated as
‘expected events’.

Agriculture
This section provides information on agro–ecological zones, land potential by selected sub-
counties, type of crops grown, the total area cropped, amount produced and their value. It also
gives information on average retail prices for farm inputs, acreage under irrigation by type of
crop grown.
High potential: Clay-loam soil with sufficient manure and good drainage
Medium potential: Sandy-loam soil with high drainage
Low potential: Sandy soil with very high drainage and low manure content
Agro-Ecological Zones (AEZ): Refers to the Division of an area of land into smaller units,
which have similar characteristics related to land suitability, potential production and
environmental impact. The zone groups are temperature belts defined according to the
maximum temperature limits within which the main crops in Kenya can flourish.
Reporting period: The data is reported on calendar year as opposed to seasonal basis.
Therefore, for crops where planting and harvesting may take place more than once in the year,
the production data is aggregated to get the annual data
Agricultural Area: refer to area under the crop or the area harvested. For a particular crop, the
area reported is on what has been harvested
Arable land: Is the land under temporary agricultural crops (multiple-cropped areas are
counted only once), temporary meadows and pastures (for less than five years), land under
market and kitchen gardens, barnyards, and land temporarily fallow (for less than five years).
The abandoned land resulting from shifting cultivation is not included in this category. Data
for “Arable land” are not meant to indicate the amount of land that is potentially cultivable.
Crop production: Refers to the actual harvested production from the field and excludes
threshing losses and that part of crop not harvested for any reason.
Farm gate Prices: The value of production given in this report uses farm gate prices as the
basis of valuation of the production from the county. Farm gate price is the price paid to farmer
at the farm level and hence excludes margins on transport.
