The places to go to.....

Individuals living in semi-arid areas will be allowed to hold a maximum of 25 hectares (61.8 acres) while those living in dry and remote sections of Isiolo, Mandera, Kajiado, Kwale, Garissa, Wajir, Tana River and Turkana counties will be allowed to own up to 2,471 acres.
When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into my heart.

I stopped reading after the first paragraph

Quote:
A proposed new law is out to cap the amount of land an individual can own, setting big landowners on the path to giving up large chunks of their holdings or paying taxes on idle land.


what if they tax Kshs 10 per acre per year?

Quote:
Where a person holds land in excess of the prescribed limit and such land is not put to use, “such land shall be taxed.

Most did not read that article

Under the proposed law, individuals in rich agricultural highlands will own a maximum of 10 hectares (24.7 acres) — a limit that extends to 15 hectares for the not-so-rich agricultural land.

That means, if the Bill becomes law, no single individual will own more than 24.7 acres in Bomet, Kisii, Nyamira, Nandi, Trans-Zoia, Vihiga, Uasin Gishu and Bungoma counties, which are classified as high potential agricultural areas.

Individuals living in semi-arid areas will be allowed to hold a maximum of 25 hectares (61.8 acres) while those living in dry and remote sections of Isiolo, Mandera, Kajiado, Kwale, Garissa, Wajir, Tana River and Turkana counties will be allowed to own up to 2,471 acres.


1)Do Companies qualify as individuals? Guys with tracks of land can simply transfer ownership to a company.

2) Look at the areas identified!

hi ni upuus

Semi arid limited to 61 acres? Kidogo saana!

It's Ok to limit minimums to ensure at least it remains productive

But limiting maximums will kill large scale agriculture. Imagine telling investors that before they buy 70ha in Kitui they have to get approval from CS!
Laughing out loudly smile Applause d'oh! Sad Drool Liar Shame on you Pray
