The Annual Development Plan (ADP) forms the basis for all budgeting and spending of public funds. Thus, the ADP forms the basis for the preparation of county budget estimates which incorporates the financial and economic priorities for the county over the short term period. The ADP provides a basis for project identification, implementation and evaluation. It also provides a framework for coordinating development agenda across the sectors in the county government. It also ensures that there is proper linkage between policy, planning and budgeting. The plan provides an analysis of strategic priorities over the medium term which reflect the county government's priorities in an ever changing financial and economic environment. The expected outcome of this plan is to accelerate the drive towards poverty reduction while stimulating job and wealth creation for the county residents. The unveiling of the ADP 2019 is a clear demonstration of our commitment to the realization of our county vision of being a prosperous county with equal opportunities for all. It is my expectation that increased participation by the various stakeholders through the identification, planning, implementation and monitoring and evaluation of projects and programmes will help address the myriad of challenges facing the people of Embu in order for them to realize social, political and economic development.

It also provides a highlight of the county in terms of the existing physical, social, economic, and environmental trends that affects development of the county. 1.1.1 County Background Information Embu County is one of the 47 counties in Kenya. The administrative capital of the County is Embu town which was formerly the Eastern Province headquarters. Embu County is occupied indigenously by the Embu, Mbeere and Kamba ethnic communities The county is traversed by road B6 (Makutano -Meru), which is the major transport spine and passes through Embu and Runyenjes towns. Agriculture is the mainstay of the county and livelihood of the people. The sector employs 70.1 percent of the population and 87.9 percent of the households are engaged in agricultural activities. The areas of Manyatta and Runyenjes sub-counties are agriculturally productive areas while those of Mbeere North and Mbeere South sub-counties are largely semi-arid. Embu county mainly relies on coffee, tea, macadamia and miraa as the main cash crops while the main food crops are maize, beans, cowpeas, green-grams, bananas, sorghum, tomatoes, pawpaw, avocado and citrus fruits. 1.1.2 Position and Size Embu County is located approximately between latitude 0o 8’ and 0o 50’ South and longitude 37o 3’ and 37o 9’ East. It borders Kirinyaga County to the West, Kitui County to the East, Machakos County to the South, Murang’a County to the South West, Tharaka Nithi County to the North and Meru to the North West. The county is divided into four constituencies, namely; Runyenjes, Manyatta, Mbeere South and Mbeere North covering a total area of 2,818 sq. km. The depiction of the location of Embu County in Kenya is provided in Map 1 1 Map 1: Location of the County in Kenya Source: Kenya National Bureau of Statistics 2 1.1.3 Physiographic and Natural Conditions Physical and Topographical Features Embu County is characterized by highlands and lowlands and slopes from North-West towards East and South-East with a few isolated hills such as Kiambere and Kiang’ombe. It rises from about 515m above sea level at the River Tana Basin in the East to 5,199m at the top of Mt. Kenya in the North West. The southern part of the county is covered by Mwea plains which rise northwards, culminating in hills and valleys to the northern and eastern parts of the county. There are also steep slopes at the foot of Mt. Kenya. The County is served by six major rivers which are Thuci, Tana, Kii, Rupingazi, Thiba and Ena. There are also some major dams which generate hydroelectric power for the country that are partly in the county. These include Masinga, Kiambere, Kindaruma and Gitaru dams which are situated along the Tana River. The most conspicuous physical features in the county are Mt. Kenya, Kiang’ombe hills, Kiambere hills, Mwea game reserve, River Tana, Masinga dam, Kamburu dam, Kindaruma dam, Kiambere dam and Gitaru dam. Ecological Conditions Embu County depicts two distinct areas with different agro-climatic and natural characteristics. The County has a typical agro-ecological profile of the windward side of Mt. Kenya, from cold and wet upper zones to hot and dry lower zones in the Tana River Basin. The average annual rainfall reflects this contrast: from more than 2200 mm at 2500 m to less than 600 mm near the Tana River at 700 m (Farm Management Handbook 2006, p.87). The variation is mainly due to the mountain but also to the “water recycling” effect of the forest by evapo-transpiration. Above 2500 m, rainfall decreases due to the lower moisture content of the colder air and the stronger influence of the trade wind system, but nevertheless the area is still very wet. 3 Map 2: Agro-ecological zones in the County Source: Farm Management Handbook 2006 Climatic Conditions The rainfall pattern is bi-modal with two distinct rain seasons. Long rains occur between March and June while the short rains fall between October and December. Rainfall quantity received varies with altitude averaging to about 1,067.5 mm annually and ranging from 640 mm in some areas to as high as 1,495 mm per annum. Temperatures range from a minimum of 12oC in July to a maximum of 30oC in March with a mean average of 21oC. The extensive altitudinal range of the county influences temperatures that range from 200C to 300C. July is usually the coldest month with an average monthly temperature of 150C while September is the warmest month with an average monthly temperature rising to 27.10C. There 4 is however localised climate in some parts of the county especially the southern region due to their proximity to the Kiambere, Masinga, Kamburu and Kindaruma dams. 1.2 Administrative and Political Units 1.3.1 Administrative Units The county comprises of four (4) Sub-counties namely; Manyatta, Runyenjes, Mbeere North and Mbeere South.

Demographic Features Demographic characteristics are important in development planning as they provide a basis for sharing the limited resources. They also determine the size of labour force as well as the expected utilization of social amenities. Informed consideration of demographic characteristics enables sound decision making in the provision of essential services in urban areas. 1.3.1. Population size and composition The 2009 Population and Housing Census recorded a population of 516,212 persons for Embu County consisting of 254,303 males and 261,909 females. This population was projected to rise to 571,413 in 2018, 582,298 persons in 2020 and 593,651 persons in 2022 at population growth rate of 1.4 percent per annum, which is lower than national growth rate of 2.6 percent.

The population between 7 65-80 years was 11535 males and 15024 females translating to 5.14 percent of the entire population. This implies a higher dependency of children between 0-14 years than elderly population between 65-80 years. The county should take note of this because it means that there are more people to feed, more schools to build and pressure to create more employment opportunities. Table 1 provides the population projections of selected age groups of (0-4), (5-9 and (10-14) which represent primary school going age group, 15-19 (secondary school age group), the youth 15-34 age group, the reproductive age (15-49) for females, the labour force 15-64 and the aged 65+. The sex ratio in the county stands at 1:1 which shows an equal female and male population. The dependant population comprising of those below 15 years and above 64 years of age constitutes 42.6 percent of the population.

This has led to growth and expansion of small urban and market centres that spread out throughout the County. In addition to Embu town, other major urban centres such as Siakago, Kiritiri, Runyenjes, Manyatta, Kianjokoma and Ishiara are developing at a very high rate. As at 2018, the total projected urban population stands at 115,799. This population is projected to increase to 122,468 by the year 2022. As at 2018, Embu town has the highest projected population at 68,820 followed by Runyenjes at 22,173, as shown in Table 4. Embu town accounts for the largest proportion of projected urban population which stands at 59.43 8 percent, followed by Runyenjes town at 19.15 percent, with Ishiara town coming a distant third at 8.6 percent. Figure 1 provides a breakdown of the projected urban population.

This requires concerted effort from all key players in the improvement of the physical infrastructure as well as expanding the existing social amenities to cater for the rising population. 1.3.2. Population density and distribution Population density is a measure of the population per square Kilometre, while the distribution is the spread of people in a particular area. The release of the 2009 Kenya Population and housing Census basic report projected Embu County to have had an average population density of 193 People per Square Kilometre in 2013. Table 5 shows projected population density and distribution per Sub-County.

The county was projected to have had an average population density of 218 people per square kilometre in 2018. This is projected to be 223 and 227 in 2020 and 2022 respectively. The most densely populated constituency as per the 2018 projections is Manyatta with 637 persons per square kilometre, followed by Runyenjes, Mbeere North and Mbeere South in that order with 621, 128, and 109 respectively. Manyatta and Runyenjes have a high population density since these areas are the agriculturally productive areas. On the other hand, Mbeere North and Mbeere South are largely semi-arid with low population density. 1.3.3 Population Distribution by Ward As per 2018 population projections, Evurore ward has the highest population at 50,418 persons followed by Mavuria ward at 37,803 persons. Kiambere and Muminji wards have the lowest population at 16,664 and 18,506 persons respectively. Table 6 provides a breakdown of population projections by ward.

Population projection for special age groups Under 1 year (Infant): The population was 13075 in 2009 comprising 6,590 males and 6,485 females and is projected to increase to 14,473 in 2018 and further to 15,036 in 2022. This will require special efforts put in place for improving their health. Such efforts include scaling up antenatal care, increasing immunizations/vaccinations coverage and improving child nutrition. Under 5 years: This is the pre-primary age group. The population is projected to increase to 75,426 in 2022 as from the table 6. This is a preparatory stage to schooling, which should be given attention. The high population of this age group calls for the establishment of more ECD centres, provision of learning and teaching materials and increase in the number of personnel. Primary School Age (6 -13 years): As seen from the table 7, there will be an increase in this population as projected from 2009-2022. The increase in primary school-going children calls for the establishment of more educational facilities, provision of learning and teaching materials and increase in the number of personnel. Secondary School Age (14 -17 years): The projection shows that there will be increase in the population. The increase of this population implies that there will be increased demand for secondary school places and therefore the need to put up more facilities. Efforts should therefore be made to establish tertiary learning institutions such as technical colleges, polytechnics and university colleges to cater for those completing their secondary school education. Employment and income generating opportunities should be explored to take care of school-leavers by making them productive, hence contributing to poverty reduction in the county. Youth Population (15 - 29 years): The youth population is slightly larger compared to other age groups. It is therefore necessary to involve them in participatory and development-based activities. This calls for establishment of training and learning centres for the youth, development of youth volunteer schemes and creation of employment avenues. Reproductive Age (Female 15 - 49 years): At this age group, county government should initiate programmes aimed at improving reproductive health services like maternal and child health care services. Labour Force (15 - 64 years): This is the population that the county will depend on to meet its production requirements. However, due to high unemployment, most of the labour force is 11 not utilized. The county needs to beef up efforts to improve the skills of the labour force, through developing volunteer and career placement schemes, create an environment conducive to investment, employment creation and provision of business development services. Aged Population (65+ years): These were estimated then to be 5.1 percent, way above the national average of 3.5 percent. This has an implication in terms of health and the preparedness of the county to effectively care for its aging population. Unless planning and effective programming to address the issues of an aging population are addressed, then the county stands to regress in its growth projection because of the increasing number of older persons.

The advanced economies are estimated to have expanded by 2.4 per cent in 2018 compared to a growth of 2.5 per cent in 2017. The growth was notable in the USA as a result of a fiscal stimulus that boosted domestic demand. Growth in emerging markets and developing economies decelerated from 4.7 per cent in 2017 to 4.6 per cent in 2018. Sub- Saharan Africa region remained on a recovery path growing by 3.0 per cent during the review period compared to a growth of 2.9 per cent in 2017. In 2018, the global inflation rose to 3.6 per cent compared to a revised rate of 3.2 per cent in 2017, mainly attributable to robust global oil demand. Prices of agricultural produce remained broadly stable but declined slightly in the second half of the year. World trade volume rose by 3.9 per cent in 2018 compared to a growth of 5.2 per cent in 2017. The growth in trade was affected by trade tensions involving major economies and elevated trade policy uncertainties. The volume of exports in advanced economies grew by 3.4 per cent in 2018 compared to a growth of 4.4 per cent in 2017. Similarly, the volume of exports in the emerging markets and developing economies grew by 4.7 per cent in the review period compared to a growth of 6.9 per cent in 2017, largely affected by increase in oil prices. The overall fiscal deficit as a percentage of GDP stood at 2.9 per cent in 2018 compared to 2.3 per cent in 2017. The global economy showed improved labour market conditions during the period under review, with an estimated 3.3 billion people in the labour market. The global unemployment rate dropped from 5.7 per cent in 2017 to 5.3 per cent in 2018. The labour participation rate stood at 61.4 per cent in 2018. Country’s Economic Performance Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is estimated to have expanded by 6.3 per cent in 2018 compared to 4.9 per cent in 2017. The growth was attributable to increased agricultural production, accelerated manufacturing activities, sustained growth in transportation and vibrant service sector activities. Agricultural activities benefitted from sufficient rains that were well spread throughout the country. Similarly, the increased precipitation was a significant boost to electricity generation and consequently favorable to growth during the review period. The Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing sector growth accelerated from a revised growth of 1.9 13 per cent in 2017 to 6.4 per cent in 2018. The manufacturing sector expanded by 4.2 per cent compared to a revised growth of 0.5 per cent in 2017 mainly buoyed by increased agro- processing during the review period. Other sectors that grew notably in 2018 include Electricity Supply, Transportation and Storage, Information and Communication Technology, Accommodation and Food Services at 10.5, 8.8, 11.4, 16.6 per cent, respectively in 2018. The growth realized was anchored on a relatively stable macroeconomic in 2018. Inflation remained low at 4.7 per cent in 2018 compared to 8.0 per cent in 2017 majorly as a result of considerable declines in prices of food after the shortage experienced in 2017. The current account deficit narrowed to stand at KSh 441.8 billion in 2018 compared to KSh 503.4 billion in 2017 mainly due to a faster growth of imports of goods and services. 2019 Outlook Performance of Kenya’s economy looks less optimistic in 2019 on account of a number of factors. The 2019 long rains have delayed and weather forecast indicate that most parts of the country will experience depressed rainfall, while a number of others may record almost long rains failure. If this materializes, direct negative impacts will be felt within the activities of agriculture, electricity and water supply sectors. Further impacts could be experienced in industries that have strong interlinkages with these sectors. However, activities of the tourism sector are likely to remain vibrant supported by strong expansion in tourists’ arrivals. The construction industry is expected to follow the current trend given the ongoing infrastructural development by the government as well as the prevailing private sector confidence. A gradual increase in international oil prices in the course of the year is anticipated, especially if an agreement on production cuts by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and their partners is implemented. There are prospects of production cuts being partly offset by an increase in shale output from the USA, as well as slowed demand emanating from effects of a deterioration in global economic expansion. All in all, it is more probable that the international oil prices will rise and lead to higher domestic pump prices. Inflation is likely to rise significantly, largely driven by increase in food prices as a result of constrained domestic production in 2019. This could worsen if the magnitude of the expected rise in fuel prices ends up being substantial. The Kenyan Shilling exchange rate against major trading currencies is expected to remain stable supported by diaspora remittances and a significant level of reserves. On the demand side, growth is likely to be driven by both the public consumption as well as private sector investment. Public consumption is projected to be underpinned by the ongoing 14 development in infrastructure. Private consumption might not expand as rapidly as that of public, but is likely to remain robust in 2019 and therefore supportive of growth, while business confidence should remain strong enough to back up expansion in investment. Exports are likely to be constrained by a subdued external demand against a background of a slowdown in global trade. Overall, the economic growth is likely to slow down, but key macroeconomic indicators are likely to remain within desirable ranges throughout 2019. The following sectors namely; Agriculture, Infrastructure, Trade, Investment Tourism remain key sectors in the county’s economy and if upheld would translate to sustainable employment in addition to economic growth and subsequent development lifting living standards of the county residents. The County government will continue addressing challenges that face the people of Embu County. Fiscal policy will continue to support economic activity while undertaking the functions of county government within a context of sustainable public financing. Since the inception of the devolved government, the County Government has reoriented expenditure towards priority programs in Infrastructure, Health, Water, Wealth, Agriculture and Lands under the medium-term expenditure framework (MTEF). The county will continue prioritizing expenditure towards those priority programs that are in line with the County Integrated Development Plan (2018-2022). The critical programmes to be implemented are expected to accelerate economic activities and socio-economic development. The need for improved service delivery and implementation of development programmes results in increased expenditure demands. This will require a corresponding increase in revenue base. The county plans to meet this through efficient collection methods, widening of revenue base, and applying reasonable revenue rates. It is therefore imperative to reform and modernize the revenue regimes to ensure stability of revenue effort, while at the same time continuing to restructure expenditure systems to ensure efficiency and create fiscal space required to fund priority programmes on sustainable basis. 1.4.2 County Risks and Mitigation Measures I. Shortfall in Local Revenue The main fiscal risk that is likely to be faced by the county government is the shortfall in local revenue collections. Own Sources Revenue generation has continued to face challenges that must be progressively mitigated in order to achieve county development 15 goals. For instance revenue from land rates have continued to decline with other sources of revenue being collected being below per. Mitigation measure: In the medium term, the County will continue to undertake measures aimed at expanding the revenue base and increasing tax compliance through integration of technology in revenue collection. The establishment of Embu County Revenue Authority (ECRA) that is mandated with revenue collection and administration is expected to put in place measures geared towards increasing the local revenues collections. The Authority is at the forefront of putting in place proper mechanisms geared towards raising the local revenue collections while lobbying for more funds from the donor community. II. The country’s economic performance The Kenyan economic performance of is likely to affect the implementation of 2020/21 financial year budget. Poor performance of the economy as a result of unpredictable external and internal shocks may have a negative impact to the performance of the County in terms of the funds that will be allocated to the county from national government. Mitigation measures: Public Private Partnership (PPP) in implementation of programmes will be utilized while cutting public spending. III. Huge Wage Bill The Public Finance Management Regulations 25 (1) (b) requires that County wage bill shall not exceed 35% of the total revenue. There has been continued increase in the wage bill which has arisen due to factors which are beyond the county government. The county is disadvantaged by the current revenue distribution formula, which takes no account of inherited non-discretionary devolved costs, the county inherited staffs from the four local authorities and owing to the fact that Embu was the Headquarters of the former Eastern Province, it carries majority of the devolved staff. Mitigation measures: The county will put necessary measures in the attempt to curb wage bill through; This will include having an approved staff establishment, stop recruitment of non-essential staff and those not in the approved staff establishment; ensure appropriate engagement of casuals and payment of salaries through IPPD to enhance efficiency in HR management 16 IV. Pending Bills The issue of Pending bills continues to be a major economic policy challenge facing the County government of Embu. These bills that have accrued over the financial years with pending bills for as old as those of 2014/2015 financial year. Mitigation measure: The county government should therefore ensure that both the level and rate of growth of bills is fundamentally sustainable as high bills will continue to impact negatively on the county operations. This will be done by increasing and revising the county’s own source revenue targets to realistic and achievable targets. Unachieved revenue targets create budget gaps which at long run result to a number of unpaid expenditures (pending bills). In addition however, funds shall be allocated in the budget for debt servicing. A debt management policy will be developed to aid in the overall guidance towards managing debt. 1.5 Annual Development Plan Linkage with County Integrated Development Plan and other Plans Figure 2 shows the linkage between the Annual Development Plan, County Integrated Development plan, Budget and other policy documents.
