"content": "also need to allocate to other priority and emergency areas like mitigating the El Nino, climate change and many others. Even if we have to borrow by rearranging, we will end up borrowing less as opposed to more and so this rearrangement was necessary in the Budget. Having said that, allow me to touch on a few sectors that are benefitting from this rearrangement, one of them being the agricultural sector. We know that the agricultural sector has employed a number of reforms towards improving competitiveness of our exports, securing food security so that in the long run we are able to bring down the cost of food and, therefore, the cost of living. At the same time, we know that the agricultural sector creates a lot of employment. I want to say that this sector has benefited more. We are allocating Ksh516 million towards paying arrears to farmers, and Ksh550 million for food security diversification, among others."
