An Australian is visiting Kenya, and feeling thirsty, he stops at a house along the road. "Can you give me a drink of water?" asks the Australian.
"Of course," says the Kenyan, and invites the Australian to come in.
"What do you do?" asks the Australian."I raise a few chickens," says the Kenyan.
"Really?" says the Australian. "I'm also a farmer. How much land do you have?"
"Well", says the Kenyan, "out front it's fifty feet, as you can see, and in the back we have close to a hundred feet of property. And what about your place?"
"Well", says the Australian, "on my ranch, I have breakfast and get into the car, and I drive and drive...and I don't reach the end of the ranch until dinnertime."
"Really," replies the Kenyan. "I used to have a car like that."

@masukuma, you have a point that will need fixing at some point, the sooner the better and less painful.

The most fertile areas in Kenya are the ones with immense land pressure, leading to fragmentation that cease making economic sense.

Some dictator should consolidate the land in these area, forcibly move the residents to mega cities and release the land for commercial farming. It works in the so called developed countries, why not Kenya?

It is easy to say as I will never be President.

Nobel price in economics shared between proponents and opponents of an idea!..Eugine fama,and Robert shiller. I think there's so much unknown in economics as a science and that's why poverty has never been completely eradicated,models many times don't work, financial crises are unpredictable,asset bubbles happen...all this bcoz the HOUSEHOLD IS MANY TIMES IRRATIONAL (yea forget econ 102)..binadamu ni wazimu!
