Four young farmers, two each from Kenya and Tanzania, are part of the first agriculture reality TV show, Don’t Lose the Plot, where participants will battle it out for a $10,000 prize.

The four will each be given an acre of land in Limuru near Nairobi, where they will live and farm for nine months. The winner will be the one with the most profitable and sustainable project.
