    "content": " Hon. Speaker, let me first deal directly with the question that has just been raised by the Member representing cashew nut farmers. Under AFA, we have Oil and Nuts Directorate. This is where cashew nuts, macadamia nuts, sunflowers and others are. The regulations and measures we are putting in place or the guidelines coming out are being developed by this directorate. They will take care of all the farmers who grow edible oil crops. There is also a commitment, and I am under the direction that we need to support the growth of edible oil crops this year. We have allocated money that will support farmers from this region. There is a clarification that I am seeking on how much we must do. Rest assured that the Kenya Kwanza Government under President William Ruto is committed to supporting the people of the Coast. We ask you to kindly partner with us and work together as representatives of the people. That is our interest. As the person who has been given the responsibility by the head of State to champion this cause, I am ready, willing and available at any time. If you want to consult me or me to visit your area and tell me what you want us to do and engage the farmers, I have devolved the Ministry from Kilimo House to our farmers. That is why I am permanently out. So, I am ready to work. Hon. Speaker, I cannot exactly pick out what this great lady wants to know about sweet potatoes."
