I also sell cerials for the last 10 years. farming is the backbone to my familly. it pays there school fees and also food. I started farming after dropping out of school due to lack of school fees. and for good lack my parents had a good portion of land at the river source. and farming have been the backbone of life in my family.

My Business

I plant vegetables and maize on the leased land where I resale the surplus to the market enabling me to survive with my family. I leased two acres of land where am planning to plant maize on the onset of rain. if given the loan plus the little savings I will use the money to pay for land cultivation for the next years preparation to plant. then I will start repaying the loan after selling the previous harvested maize. thanks and I will be glad to your loan

    Thomas is a wonderful Zidisha Borrower. He makes his payments on time. I would recommend him for future loans.

    Hi Thomas, I just wanted to say that it might be helpful to reach out to Zidisha staff & ask if they can possibly pause your loan until things get easier from covid?

    I can see you were making your payments quite well before the pandemic, & just wanted to give you my well wishes... I hope things get easier for you soon :-)

    They should be able to help, I hope things aren't too stressful.

    Wishing you well from Australia, warm regards - Emma.

    Hi Thomas,
    Instead of spraying chemicals on your crops, you better investigate about how plants helps each other. You can plant beans and maiz in the same crop. They will support themselves. Good luck.
