About Me

I am Seidu Ibrahim from Techiman in Ghana. I am the only male child of my parents among six ladies. I had my elementary education at Techiman MA basic school and continued to Tamale Senior High. Due to economic challenges, I decided to take up a pupil teaching job while still tilling a piece of family land. Now, my farm is doing well. I get a revenue of over $350 bi-yearly. The farm is really helpful to me in supporting my family and other relatives financially. I am married with a daughter. My hobbies include reading, farming, tours etc.

My Business

My farm returns very good revenue to support me and my family. I grow vegetables, plantains, yam etc. This year, I want to expand the farm by growing maize which is of high demand year on year. I therefore request this loan to buy inputs and hire labour to help at the farm. With the size of land I have, my revenue would increase very much if more capital is injected into it. I envisage a return of over 50 bags of maize which currently translate to about $2200. I am therefore counting on you to achieve this goal to provide sound future for my ward and family.

Loan Proposal

I require this loan to buy farm inputs such as seeds, weedicide, spraying machine, and hire labour. $100 would be used to buy the inputs and the rest for hiring labour. I am counting on all kind lenders and zidisha to help make this happen. Thank you.
