Comparing the input with the output, the farmer has been operating at a loss. So, it is high time we strengthened this board which is being created so that it can have power. That is something that is currently creating the problem. Some of the Hon. Members are feeling that the board will not be powerful enough to counter KTDA. The KTDA has established its own way of working, which is to the disadvantage of farmers. They should automate the auction done at Mombasa to show the bidder prices. That way, farmers will know the price of their produce. They ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion. It is important for the Government of this country to be serious with its citizens.
