    "content": "Hon. Members, majority of our people are still food insecure and living in abject poverty, especially in rural and slum areas of urban cities. Further, food takes up about 70 per cent of the household budgets. When food prices rise, they create agitation for high wages which in turn weakens our competitiveness. The low productivity of agriculture is caused by use of inappropriate technology, inaccessible farm inputs, weak extension support services and overreliance on rain-fed agriculture. To deal with the challenges of food insecurity, and to reduce the cost of living associated with the high food prices, the Cabinet Secretary for Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries will implement a comprehensive agricultural revitalization programme aimed at expanding, enhancing productivity and transforming agriculture into a business venture."
