    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, currently there are so many cartels in the coffee industry. We must do all we can to get rid of these cartels in this sector. When Kenyan coffee is brewed internationally, it is very expensive. Once it is processed outside our country, local farmers cannot afford it because it becomes damn expensive. There is need for us to ensure that the farmer who plants the coffee is able to afford the same coffee that he planted. Just like cane, you will find that farmers who grow cane are not able to afford buying sugar, yet that cane that they planted is the same cane that will eventually be refined into sugar. This is the irony of ironies. You are the producer, but you are not able to consume what you produce because you cannot afford it. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I support this Bill by Sen. Ndwiga. The issue of registration is important. There is need for county governments to ensure that coffee farmers are registered. For example, if someone is a miller, let that person be known by the county government. Let them have a licence to do what they are supposed to do."
