"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to inform the Minister that the current dispute that we have in the sugar sector, especially in Western Kenya, arises from the sugar cane poaching. One factory is poaching cane because it is offering a high price than the other. I would request the Minister to take this opportunity to discuss the issue with the manufacturers, so that they can give fair prices. Farmers in Mumias, especially in Nambale where we have had problems, we have never understood why West Kenya has had an advantage over Mumias yet Mumias has five streams of getting income on the same cane. They have sugar, ethanol, coal generation, water and molasses. So, the dispute that we have in the sugar sector can be managed. It is nothing out of this world. It can be managed if everything is done in the right manner."
