"content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I come from an agricultural area. I thank the Member for Moiben for coming up with this particular Motion on behalf of the Kenyan farmers. Agriculture is the backbone of our economy. Farmers do this country good on matters economy. I come from Narok South, Narok County and planting is ongoing in the region. I want to thank the Government for the subsidised fertilisers. That was very good for our farmers. I might not really complain on the issue of fertiliser distribution because it is well done. We have an issue with regard to pricing by the time harvesting is done in that region. For example, by the time harvesting is done in that region, wheat has already flooded the market in the country. That is the only issue we have as far as farmers are concerned. I concur with my brothers on the issue of payment. It is in order for the farmers to be paid for their deliveries because that is their lifeline. They rely on it for fees for their children and any other operations as well as development. It is true that farmers completely rely on their proceeds from farming, whether it is with regard to their children going to school or any other The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
