Newfarer, kwani you cook with what? ...Kuni? coz elec is another that's going to be taxed, even kerosene is indirectly connected to fuel tax. when I buy 13 kg gas it lasts about 2 months but 3 pints of milk at 168 per day for the young family isn't a laughing matter. now will have to reduce milk consumption to 1 or 2 Max per day.wataumia lakini tutado? punda amecheka

But honestly why should a litre of Milk be more expensive than a litre of petrol. Something is not adding up considering this is a basic commodity "Peace is our profession, War is our business" ...Unknown

Let's start it from the supply side. How much should a farmer be paid by the milk processor per litre?

How much should a farmer be paid by the milk processor per litre? How much does it cost to produce 1 litre of milk upto the point of delivery to the processor? Then we can determine how much the processor should pay the farmer.

Then we can determine how much the processor should pay the farmer. Alot of factors comes in but 100 vs 30 pr litre is too much! I know the miok is transported from Muchatha to Roiro/Brookside, filtered, homeginised, fat removed, cooled, parked and shipped to Tuskies 20km away in the city! ION: How much is alitre of that miok sold in Supermarkets through dispensers?  Portfolio: Sold
You know you've made it when you get a parking space for your yatcht.

Si we open our own plant namely Wazua Milk Processors and sell the milk at a reasonable price? All consumers will come our way...and the Wazua shareholders will be rich...even as they sort out a social problem. I still believe the milk high prices are not all about the VAT. Even 45 is way too high for many of us.
