Abstract: This paper examines the determinants of smallholder dairy farmers’ choice of milk marketing outlet using data from smallholder farmers in Kipkaren division of Nandi County in Kenya. Two main objectives were explored including the effect of the state of roads infrastructure and the ownership of means of milk transport to the market on the farmers’ choice of milk marketing outlet. The result shows that the state of the roads and the ownership of means of transport determined the farmers’ choice of milk marketing outlet in the division.
