    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, I wish to take this opportunity to support the Motion on fertilizers. I do not need to over-emphasize the importance of fertilizer in farming. I wanted to recommend that the Ministry of Finance alongside the Ministry of Agriculture should work hand-in-hand so that Treasury can provide money in good time so that, that fertilizer can be availed to farmers in good time. I am not only talking about the availability of fertilizer. We want the fertilizer to be available in good prices so that farmers can afford to buy it. It is needless to provide fertilizer at prices beyond the reach of farmers. As a Member of Parliament coming from a maize producing area, we would like fertilizer to be in the range of Kshs1,500. I also want to give an opinion. The Ministry of Agriculture and Treasury should work on a long-term programme so that we can set up a plant to produce fertilizer within the country. Otherwise, with those few remarks, I beg to support and congratulate hon. Wakhungu for such an important topic."
