"content": "I am a maize farmer. What assurance can I have that when I take my maize to a warehouse, leave it there and get somebody to sell it for me, I will get value for it? A farmer will put his harvest in a warehouse. Cartels will cheaply import maize - like they did this year - into the warehouse. What will happen to that farmer’s maize? The farmer’s profit will drop. So, this thing, as I said before, looks very good, but… I know there will be other challenges concerning regulations. Insurance, I know, is a disaster even though it can be done. As long as corruption persists and Kenya being a man-eat- man society, I doubt whether this thing is going to be of any help. When I was going through this Bill, I kept wondering whether or not it has been proposed with cartels in mind. I do not know, but all in all, it is a fair Bill if it is thought out well and piloted."
