    "content": "The GDP of this country can only grow if agriculture works effectively. The only way to ensure that it works effectively is to focus, like what Hon. Chris Wamalwa said, on certain crops like tea, coffee or sugar-cane, so that there is a deliberate attempt. But when we have a directorate here, a huge behemoth called the AFA in Nairobi, that thinks that it controls everything, it will not work. I think the person who tried to really work hard was Cabinet Secretary Kiunjuri, but every time he tried - and I had a discussion with him about our coconut and cashew nuts - he said that his hands were tied and that he could not put money in coconuts and cashew nuts because AFA says that they are insignificant crops. That is what my friend here says. These are insignificant crops and we cannot spend money to revive them. It gives me hope that I will come to this Parliament and sponsor a Bill that will establish a Coconut Development Authority. That will give hope to the people."
