About Me
I am 49 years old married with 3 children, a boy and 2 girls. I managed to reach university level where I got a diploma in agriculture. After school I was employed in a private sector for 8 years and then I decided to employ myself through dairy farming and general agriculture. While doing my business I was very lucky to be employed by the government as the area chief in Boror location which includes Salgaa town.
My Business
As I have said, I have a dairy and general agriculture farm as a business to support my family. The milk in this area has a great demand and any other farming products. I sell my products in a retail but when the harvest is good I prefer to sell wholesale for I do get money at one time. My customers like my products because they are of great quality and fresh from garden.
Loan Proposal
My passion is skewed to farming,more so in dairy animal.This an area I am comfortable doing, again and again.This time I want to spend the loan to buy a half (1/2) ACRE land along the river at USD 2,000 (KES 200,000),USD300 (KES 30,000) for water-pump,and balance USD259 (KES 25,900) to buy seed like Lucerne, sorghum, and legumes to plant to make silage thereafter. It is said agriculture not only gives riches to a nation,but the only riches she can call her own.
