As investigators try to clean up the rot at the cereals board, some maize farmers in the North Rift have stopped delivering their grain to the NCPB altogether, and are instead opting to sell to private millers at throwaway prices. The farmers say they do not trust the government to pay them, after they have delivered their grain to NCPB. The government set the buying price at NCPB for a 90kg bag of maize  at 2,300 shillings.
