"content": "This Bill is useful in many ways. One, given the number of farmers who are involved in it, you can immediately see that it helps in the aspect of poverty eradication or poverty reduction in this country. You can reflect this against the Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper of 2001. There is also the Paper that was done in 1997 which deals with Industrial Transformation to the Year 2020. This aims at expanding and promoting sectors and enterprises in which Kenya already has experience and comparative advantage. Having grown pyrethrum since 1929, Kenya has expansive knowledge and expertise in this sector and this is one of the areas that would benefit the country substantially if we liberalize the market. It helps in the creation of employment and also in the issue of, as I have said earlier, foreign exchange. Also, more importantly, it also helps in restoring Kenya to where it has always been."
