The Kenya Government has over a number of years pursued policies geared towards the promotion of secondary towns. Included in this strategy is the achievement of an orderly and coordinated urban land development. However, experience from these towns indicates that, planned land development has encountered a lot of bottlenecks particularly in relation to the institution of private ownership of land. This paper traces the land tenure systems that have existed in the Kenya’s secondary towns.
Effects of soil type, vegetation and land use on infiltration rate and related soil physical properties in two semi-arid catchments in Laikipia District Triticum aes tivum l.)
Effects of soils, vegetation and land use on infiltration
rates and related soil physical properties of the semi-arid
Sirima and Hukogodo catchments in Laikipia district were
investigated. Representative six soils in Sirima and four
soils in Hukogodo, surveyed at detailed level, were assessed.
Within soil types, four site condition treatments with respect
to vegetation cover and land use designated as Tr_ee/Bush _(TB),
Open Grass (OG), Bare Ground (BG) and Cultivated Surface (CS)
