The State has rejected a push to hive off part of the 25,875 hectares that President William Ruto had directed be put under rice and sugarcane irrigation through a public-private partnership in Tana Delta.
The EAC and ASALs Cabinet Secretary Peninah Malonza said the government targets to produce 30,000 acres of hybrid rice to address food insecurity.
