Assuming 15000 members, each getting 40x80 the land needs to be 1200 acres.
May be we are getting membership numbers wrong
That twiga farm 1,100 Acres brother/sister.
Members number has increased from about 6K in the 90s to the current huge figure due to inheritance of shares, like me, i inherited 4 shares and my mother remained with 2 in 2002.
The probkem with membership and shares is that, plots are distributed in terms members NOT shares numbers. So, if you have 10 shares and i 2, plot is the same, what you need to do is distribute your 10 into 5 groups of 2 each.

Thanks for the info, now it makes sense. I've been an enthusiast of Mboi-Kamiti over the years. The success story of the company would make a good thesis.
BTW--- The dam(s) next to Twiga... are they also owned by Mboi-Kamiti?
How can one get a "beach" plot?
