    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to bring to the attention of all hon. Members the fact that right now the NCPB is in consultation with the farmers, and all stakeholders in order to buy maize at a competitive rate. We want the maize industry to go the way of the wheat industry. The prices of wheat are determined by the law of demand and supply. Likewise, we want the prices of maize to be controlled by the market and the farmer is a beneficiary. The cost of the inputs will determine the cost of the end product, which is the maize. We will cushion farmers by letting the NCPB buy maize at the prevailing price, for example Kshs1,800 a bag at a particular time, so that the farmers can make a margin."
