"content": "development of those water pans when the Ministry had promised Kenyans that they would be developed? It is time the Minister for Agriculture put more money into irrigation. We are talking about livestock in this country; the price of animal feeds has shot up. The New Kenya Co-operative Creameries (KCC) is buying the farmers milk for peanuts, that is, Kshs23 per kilogramme yet the consumer is paying three times as much for the same amount of milk. The farmer does not benefit. We have been talking about provision of fertilizers to our farmers. You will be surprised that today when the planting season is over some of our areas have not received any fertilizer. While I support this Motion, a lot needs to be done in the agricultural sector, the livestock sector, the education sector and the water sector. We wish the new Minister for Finance all the best, but let us hope that these funds that we are voting will not be returned to Treasury while we are suffering and the small- scale farmers are still in need of fertilizers and other inputs to improve agriculture. With those few remarks, I support."
