    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The Government is already implementing plans for greenhouse farming in most parts of the country to improve agricultural production although the take off is slow owing to high startup capital and water availability. This policy is derived from the realities of climate change, where rain-fed production is unpredictable. (b) The Government has expanded this programme and in particular, is funding construction of greenhouse for the Ombo Village Health Development Group in Uriri Constituency for tomato production and demonstration purposes. (c) The Government and stakeholders in the agricultural sector have enough personnel and technocrats to help in the new farming technologies. However, following the creation of new districts, the Ministry is experiencing shortage of personnel and hope to recruit more to cope with the demand. Currently, Uriri District has eight Ministry of Agriculture officers."
