"content": "THAT, appreciating the significance of potatoes as the second most consumed food crop in Kenya; noting that the entire country is served by a single run down potato cooling facility located in Molo; aware that there has been a remarkable increase in potato acreage in the country; appreciating the need to enhance seed development and research on potatoes; this House urges the Government to establish an additional potato cooling center in the North Rift of Kenya to serve Western and Nyanza Provinces. On the outset, let me start by saying that the potato is one of the most important food stuff in this country but very little has always been done to develop it or do research so that the best seed is available to the farmers. Molo has been the only area which has been serving this country for a long time since colonial times without considering that there is population increase and the urban areas that we have today were not there during colonial times. Today, there are so many urban areas and the main food in urban areas is potatoes. When you go anywhere in urban areas, even in Nairobi, you will find that there are French fries everywhere commonly known as chips."
