I am talking about now. I have figures to support what I said. In 2005/2006, we sold 48,835 metric tonnes at a October 28, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3031 value of Kshs9.7 billion. In 2006/2007, we sold 53,000 metric tonnes at Kshs8.7 billion. Up to September 2008, we had already sold 42,000 metric tonnes at Kshs9 billion. So, I am not talking about the future. I am talking about now, because the prices have been going up. If you look at the auction, the average in the last three years has been US$3 per kilogramme, which is the highest ever in the last 14 years in this country."}
