Uasin Gishu county has partnered with the Israel government to improve the agriculture and health sectors.
The partnership was inked during a two- day visit by the Israel Ambassador to Kenya Michael Lotem.
The delegation visited a number of key areas of interest among them farms and the Eldoret Water and Sanitation Company.
Governor Jonathan Bii said the county is set to reap big from the partnership.
He spoke during a press briefing at the county headquarters on Wednesday.
Some of the benefits in the agriculture sector will include training of farmers by the Israel government on the best practices.
The county government will also be importing semen of the latest breeds from Israel, which will boost milk production.
"Israel's diary cows produce an average of 40 litres of milk a day compared to local dairy cows, which produce 4.6 litres," Bii said.
The health sector will also get a Sh473 million boost to improve service delivery.
The governor said the projects will be done in phases starting with the hospital lab innovation in all health facilities in the county.
He also said Israel will support training of health staff and provide medical equipment that will help reduce patient referrals.
The Israel government has also promised to support the county government in improving water provision by digitising the process through adoption of new technology.
Under the partnership the county government will import smart metres from Israel and also construct more dams.
The collaboration will also bring in investors in housing and solid waste management.
Bii said Israel has a good solid waste system where 90 per cent of solid waste is recycled and used for agriculture.
