With aggressive policy action, the COVID-19 pandemic could be overturned in a shorter period of time,\u201d she emphasized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government announced&nbsp;plans to spend&nbsp;Sh53.7 billion on a stimulus package to support businesses that have been hit by the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the stimulus package, the government plans to fast-track the payment of pending bills and tax refunds to companies, provide&nbsp;temporary employment programs for young people, farm-inputs subsidies, and rehabilitation of roads, schools, and water facilities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government will also speed up payments of cash transfers to the elderly, disabled persons, orphans and vulnerable children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The stimulus package will take effect in the fiscal year starting July 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Ministry in partnership with County Governments and development partners has already started implementing public programs for food and nutrition security,\u201d she noted.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While many governments are now acknowledging that COVID-19 will be a long-term problem, Nyaga noted the government has opened up some parts of the economy to alleviate the economic situation as a slow recovery of economic activities may lead to broken supply chains, struggling food processing as many firms try to fix their finances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cReliance on accurate data for decision making will foster appropriate emergency response, recovery, and resilience of governments to adapt to the new normal occasioned by the COVID-19 pandemic. Without these strategic interventions, the world\u2019s population could plunge into extreme poverty and thus exacerbate hunger and malnutrition incidences to about 140 million people,\u201d she added.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the latest report from the World Bank, despite the government\u2019s efforts to mitigate the impact of corona virus on food security, millions of Kenyans\u00a0\u00a0are at risk of facing starvation as the impact of Covid-19 and locust invasion on food security escalates.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Report says food security in Kenya is facing twin shocks from restrictions in place due to the Covid-19 crisis and the earlier locust attack, contributing to a spike in food prices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhile Kenya\u2019s cereal producing counties were spared the first-round of the locust invasion, there is high probability that the second-round towards mid-year could impact major food growing areas. The government is implementing a number of measures to mitigate the impact of the corona virus on food security and food prices,\u201d the report states.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report also projects inadequate rainfall that could result in poor harvest that will lead to high food prices, increased food imports and could widen the current account deficit and weigh in on macro stability.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NAIROBI, Kenya, Jun 8 -The Ministry of Agriculture is working on designing programmes to promote youth investments in agribusiness.\u00a0 The programmes include providing access to markets for youth in agribusiness, access to affordable and youth friendly financial services for agri-preneurship, which could be done in form of seed capital as well as establishing an innovative [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13754,"featured_media":66864,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[851,687],"tags":[934],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-66863","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-agriculture","category-top-stories","tag-featured"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.7.1 (Yoast SEO v27.5) -
