"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is no doubt that as one of the fourth largest export commodities, tea contributes significantly to foreign exchange inflows into this country. This has happened for many years. I also appreciate that there have been challenges, not just in the tea and coffee sector, but we generally have had challenges in the entire agricultural sector in this country. The same challenges that we have with tea and coffee are the same challenges we have with maize and wheat farming and all the other agricultural sectors in this country. Over the years, we have been discussing the causes of these challenges and have been looking into the remedies to these challenges. We have tried many remedies in the past. We have even subsidized coffee and tea farmers, including writing off debts. We have done the same for sugar cane farmers.
