"content": " I seek the attention of Hon. Chairman of the Committee. Could the Member of Parliament for Tinderet allow him to listen? Hon. Chair, you probably need to come out a bit clearer especially on the pro-rata basis in (d). I believe it should be the purpose of the Coffee Board to expand the area under coffee production. As you have put it, there is literally none for coffee development. It means that counties that do not grow coffee and probably have ecological zones that allow coffee growing will never manage to expand acreage under coffee. For example, Busia County is very good for coffee growing. We have not been able to expand acreage under coffee since we have had no support. I do not know if you can agree to move it in some kind of an amended form to have a provision for coffee development, so that we can increase the counties growing coffee based on scientific research on the ability to grow coffee."

The 10 per cent will be apportioned to crop development in those counties. This is expansion of the new areas. Coffee, as a crop, has been developed in this country. Right now, we may need to open up more areas"

"content": " Hon. Temporary Chairlady, I beseech the Chairperson that this levy is supposed to promote coffee growing, development and more importantly to incentivise new areas to grow coffee. The 12 per cent for coffee development is the money that we levy the crop. Thirty-five per cent is for the institute, 20 per cent is for the Board and almost 15 per centum to the Board for marketing purposes. So, the Board is taking almost 40 per cent. This is upside down. Other crops like tea and sugar give farmers a more prominent role especially in this levy. Building of roads and educating cooperative farmers should have a higher per centum than what is provided here. I want to ask the Chairperson that we re-look at this."
