In 2018, Larive partnered with the Dutch company Genap to carry out a feasibility study to the potential of using wastewater from intensive fish farming systems for crop production through drip irrigation in Kenya. This primarily focused on re-use of waste water from Recirculation Aquaculture Systems (RAS).

The system was field-tested and water analysis was carried out. Results found that crop growth increased by 40% and the use of fertilizers was reduced by 70%.

The Dutch government uses the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) in Developing Markets programme to challenge entrepreneurs to solve societal problems with innovative products and services in collaboration and co-creation with local partners in Africa.
