Yes. Cows can survive in Kisumu. Farmers need to take care while constructing Cow houses to ensure raised roofs allowing air circulation to reduce heat stress. The most important point is to ensure you plan for feed so that your cow can have a yearlong supply of feeds with the same quality even in the dry season.

Mixing animal feeds at home can help farmers reduce costs while guaranteeing quality. The first step is to research the availability and cost of feed ingredients. Websites like https://cowsoko.co.ke/inputs he's farmers compare the availability and prices of animal feeds. The second step is to get a nutritionist who uses Least cost animal feed formulation software like https://cowsoko.co.ke/feeds to get a customized feed formula. The final stage is then to order for feed ingredients and mix them uniformly using a mixer or sade in the desired quantities then feed. This way, a farmer will ensure they feed the best quality at the lowest cost.
