The move comes as State readies to lease the public sugar mills for 20 years.
Those owed money asked to furnish their bank details with respective firms for the payment.
The government has initiated the process of paying Sh6.94 billion, which is owed to farmers and staff by four public sugar factories ahead of their planned leasing.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development on Friday told farmers and staff who have worked with or for Muhoroni Sugar Company, Nzoia Sugar Company, South Nyanza Sugar Company and Chemelil Sugar Company factories to hand in their bank details.
