    There's a delay in payment of my invoices, however, the same will be paid at the end of the month thus the request to reschedule, thank you.

    Hi all.
    I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for accepting to fund my project.
    Indeed I will use the funds to purchase fertilizer and other farm inputs.
    This will help me to take advantage of the short rains season that is currently on.
    Once again, thank you very much.
