However, just like other world importers, I import wheat and animal feed from Ukraine. I also import soya beans from Uganda and Tanzania. Madam Temporary Speaker, what I was paying for a kilo of soya beans two years ago was only Kshs60. In fact, in some cases, I would be very lucky and I would pay Kshs56. Today, I am paying at minimum, Kshs120. That is double. If you look at what I am selling milk at, it is still almost the same price as I was selling two years ago."}
