    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, I would like to thank the Senator for Nyandarua County for coming up with this Bill that seeks to regulate and develop the potato industry. The potato is a very important food crop. As I speak, it is the number two staple food for Kenyans. Unlike the other crops which are of less importance, the potato industry, for a long time, has not had a regulatory framework. Opportunities in this area have not, therefore, been exploited to the full. By coming up with a Bill that seeks to regulate the industry, we shall be standing in a better state to ensure that this crop gets the attention it deserves. Apart from being a food crop, the potato also has other industrial uses. It can be fed to cattle, pigs or processed for starch to be used in the medical industry. It is also used to make disposable utensils like plates. It is better than plastic because it is biodegradable. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
