Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi says the Government does not have the budget to compensate farmers who lost their crops and livestock to flash floods and rains that wreaked havoc across the country.

However the CS remarks comes days after Agriculture Principal Secretary Dr. Paul Ronoh said the government will find a way of compensating farmers in the country whose crops were destroyed by the floods.
