Farmers in Trans Nzoia County have called for the restructuring of fertiliser distribution through cooperative societies.
They argued that the current system is inefficient and prone to abuse, leaving many genuine farmers without timely access to subsidised inputs.
A farmer from Sirende, Philip Matui, who cultivates over 200 acres, criticised delays in fertiliser allocation, saying his maize had already passed the 42-day top dressing window by the time he received only 10 bags.
