Governor Jonathan Lati Lelelit Pledges On Agriculture, Livestock Development, Veterinary Services & Fisheries

The key achievements realized during the period were: availing of subsidized fertilizer to farmers; provision of certified seeds to farmers; availing of superior camel breeds and control of animal diseases.
Despite the above achievements, the sector was faced with the challenges of inadequate funding and delays in disbursement of exchequer; poor performance of markets and infrastructure; limited access to financial services; slow enactment of bills; crop and livestock diseases, impacts of climate change, range degradation, limited value addition, high production costs, and inadequate strategies for implementation of
policies and enforcement of legislation.
During the 2018/19- 2020/21 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) period, the sector will implement various programmes.
The key expected outputs for the 2018/19-2020/21 MTEF period are – equipment of the county vet laboratory, equipment and operationalization of the Maralal Abattoir, completion of Arsim and Lulu irrigation schemes as well as timely provision of certified seeds.
Effective implementation of the sector programmes will depend on timely release of allocated funds to all spending units. Partnership with development partners and collaboration with stakeholders will be embraced to enhance ownership and the pace of implementation. Monitoring and evaluation will also be strengthened to ensure that allocated funds are applied for the intended purposes and are used efficiently.
