"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. First of all, I would like to congratulate my Chairman for that statement. As I congratulate him, I want him to take note of the fact that it has taken too long for the Government to come up with chemicals to eradicate this disease. There are chemical companies that provide and sell chemicals to farmers that we are not sure can cure this disease. It is important to note that the costs that farmers are incurring in terms of losses of production are high despite the fact that recently, the Cabinet Secretary, Agriculture, encouraged Kenyans to switch from ugali to other products for food. It is our tradition in this country and maize remains a staple food. This is a matter that requires speed. Otherwise, currently, we are importing maize from Tanzania and yet we have enough land that can grow enough food for our country."
