"content": " Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Sen. Kinyua has said that some areas produce more food, while others have a shortage. This is true. However, during this last drought – the very worst – Kenya was a net importer of food, especially rice, beans and other commodities. We are net importers. Back to his point, work needs to be done by multi-sectoral players, including the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Cooperatives, Ministry of Water and Sanitation and various Government and non-state actors. We need to come up with county food balance sheets. This exercise will bring back reserve food quantities, so that in future, food can be stored and be available in order to manage the shortages in some counties by getting it from other counties. That is an assignment worth undertaking by the multi-sectoral players in this food security sector. My Ministry is very involved and interested in the outcomes of such an exercise. Thank you."
