"content": "Exactly, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to speak on behalf of Meru County where you also come from. This is one of our cash crops. Meru should stop being seen to only deal with muguka and miraa . We are blessed with different cash crops that have international markets. That is why I encourage many people to visit. It is very hard to find people suffering from hunger or any other challenging issue because when it comes to job opportunities and cash crops, we lead in these two. Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, all said, I ask Sen. Cherarkey why this invite was not extended to this Senate. This is because some of us would pride in celebrating, especially with the growers. Sen. Sifuna had raised a concern on who is to be celebrated. It is good to know that without the farmers, we will not have the end product. Being the consumers of the end product, it is always very critical to celebrate these farmers and ensure that they continue expanding the agricultural sector. From my business perspective, I support the tea industry very much. I know that the Government has also put ahead matters of fertilizer, the correct seedlings and research centres. We, therefore, believe that as we move forward, farmers will have direct markets for their products. Thank you."
