THE STANDARD BUSINESS NEWS Sugarcane trucks parked in West Kenya sugar company [MUMO MUNUVE, Standard] The Kenya National Federation of Sugarcane Farmers (KNFSF) says the machines were never installed as earlier planned. Sugar Directorate had promised to have the nine units installed in State-owned factories by 2017 but this has not happened. Paying farmers based on the sucrose content of delivered cane was among recommendations captured in the sugar task force report handed to President Uhuru Kenyatta about two years ago. “Farmers will realise huge returns from this venture since they have the capacity to produce high quality raw material as long there is support from the government and other players in the industry,” said KNFSF Deputy Secretary General Simon Wesechere.
