I was born in the village got educated hold a diploma in public administration.
Due to high levels of un employment and change in government i decided to venture into agri business .
After i got some savings i started small though still learning.
My daughter wants to be a lawyer
Am doing a nursery on avocado, a green house on tissue culture and pig rearing.
I got some training through the county government on avocados and bananas and decided to give it a try.
The demand at the moment is average since i supply to farmers.
For the bananas someone is also doing value addition hence making demand go up.
Cost depends on season since i haven't done this for long
for the pigs the cost is on the feeds
I use the profits on fees, and general up keep of my family
I intend to buy an extra bag of sow and weaner @ 18dollars and also a few extra kilograms of pollard for the mothers @0.3 dollars per kg
In terms of profit the piglets have added weight and since I intend to sell some of them they are almost at the right weight
