MPs oppose proposed tax on fertiliser in Finance Bill
Workers arrange bags of subsidised urea fertiliser for top dressing at the National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB) depot in Elburgon, Nakuru County on April 21, 2025.
MPs have opposed the planned imposition of taxes on fertiliser contained in the Finance Bill, 2025, saying it will negatively impact farmers by effectively increasing the cost of food production, among others.
The Bill, which is currently before the Finance and National Planning Committee of the National Assembly for stakeholder input, seeks to reclassify fertiliser by shifting it from zero-rated goods category to the tax-exempt schedule.
