    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, 80 per cent of this region is ASAL, which is a water scarce region. As a country, we have not been able to look at what opportunities we can use in terms of technology. Technology is very significant and this country has not been able to use technology in farming. Water conservation, irrigation and drip irrigation are some of the technological improvements that have been done in very advanced countries. As a House, we need to speak and support so that we can realise the full potential of this country. This is an agricultural country. Further to that, there is the manufacturing part of it because after production, we need to go to storage. Then after storage, we need to go to the manufacturing part. This will ensure the significant use of the crop and we will be able to get the real meaning of agriculture being an agricultural country. Bixa grows very well in hot areas. It has a lot of potential in the sense that it has many benefits. You can derive juice from it and it has medicinal value. I support this conversation in trying to promote this crop and all the other crops that can do well in dry areas. Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker."
