President William Ruto has continued to deliver on his promises to improve the lives of Kenyans by bolstering the agriculture sector. The latest move in this direction is the delivery of 17 tons of Bt cotton seeds to farmers in Busia County, which marks the beginning of President Ruto’s plan to revive the cotton sector in the country.

The delivery of these seeds is part of President Ruto’s commitment to reducing the cost of living for Kenyans by making agriculture inputs more affordable. This is a key promise in his Kenya Kwanza manifesto, which seeks to reduce the cost of living for Kenyans by focusing on bottom-up economic transformation.

In Busia County, the government has registered 12,000 cotton farmers on the Kiamis platform, and it aims to plant a total of 11,253 acres in the first phase. The government also intends to put 42,000 acres of land under cotton production in the county. This move will help create job opportunities for the hustlers of Busia, who have been struggling with unemployment and poverty.

The importance of cotton farming cannot be overstated. Cotton is a valuable cash crop that can help boost the economy and improve the lives of farmers. With the government’s support, farmers in Busia can now look forward to increased yields and higher incomes.

In addition to delivering cotton seeds, the government has also delivered 82,000 bags of fertilizer to the Malaba NCPB depot for disbursement to farmers. This move will help reduce the cost of fertilizer, making it more affordable for farmers.

President Ruto’s commitment to improving the agriculture sector is a testament to his hard work and dedication to delivering on his promises. His focus on bottom-up economic transformation is exactly what Kenya needs to create jobs, reduce poverty, and improve the lives of its citizens.

The delivery of cotton seeds and fertilizer to farmers in Busia County is a step in the right direction. It is a clear indication of President Ruto’s commitment to improving the lives of Kenyans by making agriculture inputs more affordable. With continued support from the government, farmers in Busia can look forward to a brighter future.
