This is because some farmers from some regions, particularly from central region, get paid a lot of money, while the farmers from Kisii County get a paltry between Ksh36,000 to Kshs39,000. I would like to know the basis on which bonuses are determined and paid. I know that the fertility of Kenyan soil is the same throughout the country."}
