    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I thank the Cabinet Secretary for Agriculture and Livestock Development for answering our questions. However, he should confirm to the House that the country spent billions of money on fertilizer supply. Even if they were subsidized, I believe that the budget for fertilizers was in billions. Can the Ministry consider the possibility of processing our own fertilizers in Kenya? If that kind of money is spent importing fertilizers and then they are subsidized, would it not be cost-effective for the country to consider manufacturing our own in Kenya? That would save us foreign exchange and taxpayers money. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, last year, the Cabinet Secretary did well because our farmers produced enough food supply because of the fertilizers we got from him by reducing the price from Kshs7,000 to Kshs2,500. Why not consider having a factory here in Kenya to manufacture our fertilizers?"
