Sugarcane farmers have welcomed the government’s plan to lease out Nzoia, Chemilil, Muhorono, and Sony, a move aimed at boosting efficiency, reducing debt burdens, and revitalizing the struggling sugar sector.
The Kenya National Federation of Sugarcane Farmers (KNFSF) and the Kenya Union of Sugar Plantation and Allied Workers (KUSPAWU) said this when they met on Wednesday with the committee overseeing the leasing process and Agriculture and Livestock Development Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe.
