About Me

My name is Joshua Kungu Kimani. Iam thirty years old. I was born in Karunga. I went St John Primary School and then St. Secondary School . Then after Secondary School Education . I joined my parent in the business of farming.
I come from Karunga Centre as you reach Maili Saba Centre along Nyahururu/Nakuru road you branch to your right hand and you take the rough road that goes to Karunga Centre you go past St. John’s Secondary School then to Karunga Centre. I live just next to the Centre . My is known as Kwa Mwangi Plot no. 5.

My Business

I grow various types of crops like maize cabbages, potatoes tomatoes beans carrots e.t.c from this type of farming I get an income of about 300,000 per year. I also do dairy farming I have a total of 4 cattle milking My three cows produce an average of 20 per day which I sell locally at 30 liter which is about 600 per day and 18000 per month and round 200000 per year. So the total income annually is 500000. I use the above amount for the continuity of the business. I also help my parents with the same income. I use the same income to start family project. I choose the above project because my parent introduced me to this project and also I have experience in it.
