However, the Head of State made the announcement when he met Regional and County Commissioners at the State House on Thursday, December 22.

Ruto further explained that the directive was aimed at lowering the cost of production which would in turn lower the cost of food.

“The move is aimed at reducing the cost of food production in the country,” he announced. This intervention at the production level is right and targeted, and will make farmers produce more,” he added.

“We must be transparent so that Government services can get to Kenyans as intended,” he maintained.
On the other hand, Ruto said that they will use stockists to distribute fertilizers as a move to have a long-term plan to make the country’s food stable.

“We will also use e-voucher as a tool to deliver affordable fertilisers to farmers,” Ruto noted.
