Speaker, it is against this background that I seek your indulgence in referring this matter to the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock to inquire into it and report soon on: (i) The cause of the declining prices of raw milk in the country for the last one year from Kshs35 to the current Kshs25. It has gone as low as Kshs20 in some places. I have been told that it is Kshs17 in Kisii County. (ii) How the importation of milk and milk products into the country from Uganda, that has exposed local milk farmers to unfair competition, was authorised. (iii) The measures that the Government is putting in place to cushion local milk farmers from declining prices of raw milk, unfair competition arising from importation of milk and milk products, the high cost of production mainly due to high cost of dairy feeds and artificial insemination products."
