    "content": "We are going to support and make sure this amendment passes together with the few amendments that some of us have put across. On the issue of direct market and sales by our farmers to the end user or final market is important. It reduces the brokers who have taken the bigger share. The farmers who are putting all their sweat are unable to gain or maximize their profits because cartels and brokers have come in and minimized profits that can be attained by the farmers. The amendment talks about direct sales, which then give direct proceeds and maximizes profits. The Kenya Kwanza Government has reduced the cost of fertilizer from Kshs7500 to Kshs2500. The reduction of taxation on raw materials such as pesticides has reduced the cost of production. The farmer gets maximum profits and this is the way to go. We look forward to supporting this Bill when the time comes for Division. I thank you."
