Families turn ancestral farming land in Kisii into trading centres

Nearly all the ancestral land in Gusii region has been bolted up in the space of two generations and the future peers may have nothing to inherit. [Erick Abuga, Standard]

Today, a typical farm consists of a long strip of land running down to the stream, which includes several homesteads stuck in parcels measuring less than 50 by 100 square feet.
