"content": "When county governments embrace it fully, we will see an increase in farming of this bean. In turn, we will get huge yields after harvesting the beans. I hope we will look at the post-harvest so that we do not have the beans being destroyed by weevils or other adverse conditions that different regions face. The Government has prioritised subsidizing fertilizer prices. This has made the fertilizer available to the lowest levels at the different areas where we come from. I am saying that because I also got reports from my own village of farmers who got access to this fertilizer. With such kind of incentives to boost agriculture, we have no reason for people not participating in it because it is the backbone of our economy. This will make it lucrative for the young people. You have mentioned embracing of current modern technology. This is where most of our young people lie and they will come up with innovation. There will be need of modalities of siphoning such kind of ideas to the different county governments so that we have county governments taking up this project fully. Registering the farmers who will be farming the mung bean will make it easier to mobilize these farmers into cooperatives. When they do it in their smallholder capacity,"
