By Muthoni Thang’wa, Daily Nation, Kenya-
What impact, if any, has the growth of large housing and shopping complexes and developments such as Two Rivers, Migaa, Tatu City, Buffalo Hills, Thika Greens and many such others in rural or peri-urban areas had on the economic outputs in these areas?
Such development obviously shifts a work force away from urban areas and helps the growth of infrastructure in the rural areas in which they are located. Nevertheless, their impact on agriculture and its growth nationally is equally alarming and not well thought out.
