I wish to stress one important point. The process of having food security starts with farming. What the farmers are doing and the support we give them to produce maize and other cereals is a result of good farming practice. They should have good fertilisers which have adequate and necessary nutrients. If this is not done, it is will take us to a situation where our people in this country will do without food. This Petition comes at a time when my constituency in Bungoma has also suffered. Many farmers got fertiliser which could not dissolve. Apart from being bad fertiliser, it came in late. So, the Government should take steps to ensure that the activities and functions which are so important are taken seriously."}
