    "content": "this amendment will ensure there is no cane poaching or hawking. It will ensure that the development is duly done. There should be supplier-valid agreement to protect the growth of the miller. Most of the farmers have taken loans from millers and there will be protection by the valid supplier agreement. On the issue of delivering within the sugar zone area, this amendment will ensure there is discipline. Every game has its rules. I come from Nandi and we have no millers in entire county. When you go to Nandi South, the nearest miller is Kibos, Muhoroni and the rest are 18 kilometres away. This amendment will ensure that it is easier for farmers within Nandi South to deliver to factories in Kisumu. Nandi North does not have a miller and it is nearer upper western, that is Kakamega County where Naitiri Sugar Company and Butali Sugar Company are. Farmers will not need to travel more than 200 kilometres to deliver their cane. If we are growing sugarcane in clusters as Hon. Oparanya's report indicated, we will have the central zone of Nandi South, Kisumu, and Kericho. On this other part, we have Nandi North, Kakamega, Bungoma, and Trans Nzoia because of the proximity of those factories. This amendment is in good faith and will ensure cane development, while protecting the interest of the farmer and the miller."
