Probably food security has been incorpoted into the security docket.

so ministry of agriculture is now defunct? Anyway, if you look at it from that angle, ICT should also be incorporated into the security docket, so should finance and all the rest

Irrigating maize? They should have concentrated on legumes and just give incentives to the farmers in grain growing regions. Hio mahindi hapo ni midget - not value for money.

Halafu naona wametumia ndege ya an influential guy high up in the system. Ndege inalipwa kulipwa

Whether it's legumes or maize or whatever,why not empower farmers to do the production instead of wasting all these billions?

Valid point, but my main concern is 'forcing' maize to grow in a region that doesn't favour the ultimate maize hybrid, irrigation not withstanding. Some legumes do very well in that part of the country

May it work so that we can have food security in this country. God knows we need it.

Watcha kusumbua. The project will help us to greatly increase maize production and lessen our reliance on rain-fed agriculture.

If you do the maths,the cost of producing that one bag of maize farmed by the Kenyan government is not sustainable.

Best approach would be the govt to facilitate irrigation and to avail the land so that the locals can do the farming.

Interior, security and coordination of national government functions. He is a super PS, all ministries and functions are under his docket.

Pale misri someone claimed maize from Galana would have cost only 800bob per 90kg bag to produce given the massive economies of scale, that made sense but as usual with Jameson none of his projects get to be completed.
