"content": ". Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I read through this Bill, I studied it with interest because I know what ndengu can do and the big revolution that ndengu can bring. The Bill is defining the roles of the county government. When the licensing is done, it will be known to the of the farmers who are growing mung beans, what is their source, where will they market and sell it? That way, the farmer who goes through the tedious work of planting, cultivating, harvesting and preparing the final products is not misused or mistreated but will get maximum benefits from the work he or she has done and will sell their produce with the prices that encourage them to continue farming. This Bill is excellent and good. I would urge all of us to support it and give it a nod now for it not to get lost again as it did in the last Parliament. Looking at it, I would request the Mover or the Sponsor of the Bill to consider the change of the name. Many people have been struggling to understand what mung beans are. Some were calling it ‘mag’ others are calling it ‘mungu’ because they are struggling to understand what it is. I would request my Senator, the sponsor of this Bill, to consider changing the name to either Green Gram or legume or ndengu - the name everybody knows - so that people do not get lost to understand what mung beans are. I support this Bill."
