    "content": "Hon. Speaker, Sir, in 2003, African countries met under the Maputo Declaration and one of the things they decided was that each Government should contribute, at least, 10 per cent of its income towards agriculture and food security. When you look at the percentage contribution towards agriculture and food security in this country, it does not even reach quarter of that 10 per cent and this had led to more farmers getting discouraged from doing crop farming, especially maize farming. Where I come from in Trans-Nzoia County, we are known to be a bread basket of this country where maize is widely grown. Unfortunately, you find that some of the leading farmers are now moving away from growing crops like maize to growing other crops which will not add value as far as food security is concerned."
