"content": " Madam Chair, the issue of zoning is heavily rejected by farmers who have experienced trouble in the past. I have been in the sugar sector for quite some time. The issue of zoning is not accepted by farmers where I come from. Let us provide a situation where if a farmer has a contract with a miller, not necessarily in that particular zone, that farmer must be given the freedom to take the cane to a miller of his or her choice. Concerning sugar, we produce about 70 per cent of what we consume in this country. We do not even produce industrial sugar. Industrial sugar used to be produced by Miwani Sugar Company Limited. So, we are saying that we need to give room for the Board to consider the importation of sugar. Therefore, when we go for mediation, we would like to listen more to the Senate on this particular amendment which is theirs. However, I totally reject the first part."
