MPs allocate Sh4bn more for fertiliser support plan

MPs have proposed an additional Sh4 billion for buying cheap fertiliser in the upcoming financial year, raising the total allocation to Sh8.5 billion as part of the Kenya Kwanza administration’s efforts to lower the high cost of living.

The National Assembly’s Budget and Appropriations Committee (BAC) is recommending to the House the increased allocation that will come as a boost to President William Ruto’s plan to boost food production.
