Thank you Hon. Speaker, I seek extension of the consideration period for the Irrigation Bill for one more day owing to the fact that we still have the input from stakeholders that are quite overwhelming. Therefore, we needed to run it first to the Ministry and other stakeholders so that we can accommodate all those views. So, I rise to seek extension by one more day. Thank you.

In the rural areas, after harvesting, farmers select the best seeds and store them somewhere for planting in the next season. The establishment of a fully-fledged State Department for Agricultural Research is, indeed, the way forward. The professor’s CV has been read out here and it is very impressive indeed.
