My Business

Farming is my full time business.I practice my farming at a place called Wanjohi township,Nyandarua County,Kenya.I have been in agribusiness from the year 2012,where I had acquired a piece of land measuring 1 acreage squared being a gift from my grandfather.The soil here is very fertile and it's reddish,which is very fertile and reliable in storing water moisture,thus making the vegetation/crops to perform well.I have practicing mixed crop farming since it's doing good in my area.
Presently,I have sub-divided the piece of land into several portions and have also planted different crops per portion.In a good quarter year, I normally get a net profit of Kes.25,000 after every sale of my farm produce.This enhances me to pay my bills and to pay my laborers whom we work at my farm.The piece where I had planted maize is almost maturing,which I have planned to rotate this season with other crops.With the help of the Zidisha loan,I am planning to plant butternuts and cabbages which are in higher demand to other towns and they mature in less time compared to maize.Also they have a good returns.The seedlings/crops I will acquire them from the Kenya seeds company sales depot at Ol-Kalou town which is the nearest town in my location.Thank you all in advance for boosting my farming activities and to advance me with your loan.God bless you all.
