"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, in Mumias today, there is a common terminology called “DR”. It is a debit where inputs are more than what the farmer gets. What causes this “DR” is the high cost of transport. The cost of transport is increased because of VAT charges. I strongly support the Mover of this Motion that farmers will take home more money, if the cost of transport is reduced. You will find a farmer has four to six acres and the cost of transport alone is 60 per cent of what he would have otherwise got. In that 60 per cent, there is the 16 per cent VAT. Therefore, the cost will be reduced to 50 per cent or less; meaning that the farmer will take a lot of money home."
