    "content": "others, that do not only promote the sectors through marketing, but also invest seriously in research to ensure that the products are well marketed and they deliver significant benefits to the farmers who produce them. There is no State corporation that supports the livestock sector in this country. The Kenya Meat Commission (KMC), which has been there since the colonial times, is dead in terms of its functions. It is not doing much to support livestock in this country. If the KMC could be revived and we invest in it like we have done in the tea, dairy and coffee sectors, we would be talking differently. I want Members to support the livestock sector in this country and the millions of Kenyans whose livelihoods are supported by the sector. Once this Bill is passed, it will enable the livestock sector to contribute significantly to the growth of the country. I urge my colleagues to support this Bill. It will enable Kenyans who rely on famine relief food day in, day out to have a stake in this sector and lead dignified lives."
