i had been into this business for at least three years, i now have three laborers that i am working with. whom i pay about $80.00 per month. I sell cassava and tomatoes to supplement my revenue..
These services are useful because they offer a permanent employment to my employee. These goods are on high demand such as vegetables, which is on high demand on the planting season.cassavaspecifically are on high demand in my area,therefore the goods and services are useful.eg.cassava can be use for (gari,fufu,etc)
