"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have all the information here, and whatever I have given is part of my comprehensive answer which I am prepared to share with hon. Members so that, they can understand the dynamics in which the Ministry of Agriculture really operates. I want to assure hon. Members that the Kenya Seed Company has an agency agreement with the National Irrigation Board, specifically for seed maize production. They buy that seed on timely basis. For commercial maize, we are operating under a liberalized economy whereby NIB is free to sell maize stocks currently held to any cereal dealer who is ready to offer a competitive price. We have a problem here because it seems like it is only the Government which is supposed to buy all the maize that is produced in this country. We want to encourage farmers to identify other competitive buyers."
