Fieldwork was conducted in East Alego Location, Western Kenya. The main objectives of the study were: to investigate women’s role in preservation of indigenous vegetables using traditional methods; to explore the perception of women on traditional methods of vegetable preservation and to examine the challenges faced by women in using traditional methods of vegetable preservation. Data was obtained through structured interviews, key informant interviews and focus group discussions. Simple random sampling method was used to obtain a sample size of 30 respondents. Focus group discussion was purposive based on women groups involved in agricultural activities. Similarly, key informants’ choice was based on the elderly women presumed to have the authentic knowledge on traditional methods of vegetable preservation. Quantitative data was obtained through structured interviews and analysed using Statistical Package of Social Sciences (SPSS) and presented in the form of frequencies and graphs. Quantitative data was obtained through key informant interviews and focus group discussion. Data obtained was analysed according to the emerging themes and presented in form of verbatim quotes and pie chart. The main findings of this study indicate that people no longer use traditional methods of vegetable preservation especially drying. Vegetable preservation methods has been a challenge to women therefore during rainy season when vegetable is in abundance, a lot of it is wasted. The only method of vegetable preservation still in used is fermentation though most people do not use it because they eat a lot of fresh vegetables. From the findings it became clear that women lack the knowledge of vegetable preservation especially drying method." @default.
