    "content": "The agricultural sector in this country supports over 75 per cent of the population. Most people derive their livelihoods from agriculture. Therefore, if we do not properly support this sector in the Budget, then we will not be doing the right thing. It is the main foreign exchange earner in the country. It is also the main employer of the people, especially those who are engaged in the informal sector. Agriculture provides the best avenue for us to feed ourselves. A country that cannot feed itself is not a country that can proudly call itself sovereign. If you look at the Bottom up Economic Model, which is the core concern of the current Government, you will find that out of the nine value chains that have been picked as the best to drive the economy, six of them are in agriculture."
