    "content": "On food crops, we have sufficient and the best quality products. We have the best rice, coffee, tea and green grams. We have Dengu from Tharaka, Meru, Embu, Kitui and Machakos. If we really added value to green grams and have ready markets to explore, including India, China and others, we would start treating the trade imbalance disease ailing us. We have the best of livestock production. Our meat products are sold in the East of the world and we are told the quality is extremely high. However, we are told of live camels being exported to Saudi Arabia. Live sheep is also exported to the Americas. For what we have not added any value, the price is very low. That cannot treat a trade imbalance. We have, therefore, to add value to what we export and as a result we will earn foreign exchange that will cater for what we import from those countries."
