The other day, I bought 20 grams of dried oregano leaves at a whooping sixty shillings. Do the math: 1 kilo of dried oregano leaves earned the company that sold me the product 3,000 shillings. I believe we've not explored the potential of agriculture in Kenya-there are some crops if grown at commercial levels can increase what we earn as foreign exchange
