About Me
I am Adwoa Grace from Biadan, a town in Berekum Municipality in the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. I am 48 years old, dark in complexion and about 1.2 meters tall. I am a woman with three (3) children of who two are boys and the remaining a girl. I lost my husband at the age of 30 and since then I have been taken care of my family all alone. I am a farmer and grow different types of crops. The food I like best is Banku and okra stew.
My Business
As already mentioned, I am a farmer from my youthful age up to now. I was unable to attend school to the highest since I was not academically good. I engage myself in farming since my family was having a lot of farm land. I have a cocoa farm and aside this has other farms like plantain, cassava, cocoyam yam .
In fact, I am a seasonal farmer. I have been using some of my farm product to feed my family and the rest too are sold to cater for my children education. I am therefore pleading to Lenders to lend me with a loan to buy fertilizers, insecticides to increase the yield of my crops.
Repayment of loan.
I will be able to pay the loan when I am given because I get a lot of income from the selling of my farm products, because different types of crops are grown and so there is always farm product for me to sell for increase my income.
Loan Proposal
When I am given this loan, I am going to use it to purchase fertilizer and insecticide to apply to my farm in other to increase the harvest of my crops. Recently some of my crops were attack by insects and there is a need to control them. My cocoa farm also needs fertilizer application. I will therefore plead with Lenders to support me with a loan. Thank you.
