I like farming too much, an experienced horticultural farmer. I have a six acre piece of land. I do commercial and subsistence farming. I use my income to educate my children, feed the family and pay my bills.

My Business

I grow tomatoes, capsicum, cucurbits, vegetables [cabbages, kales and spinach].I also grow maize, wheat and beans. I do mix-farming I keep daily cow for milk production for my family and sales; I keep rabbits and chicken for commercial purposes also. I my daily farming earn an income of Kenya shilling 150 per day, annually total to ksh 54000.from the other part I get 246000 therefore my total income is Ksh. 300000 annually.

Loan Proposal

In my second loan
I would like to add my dairy farming by adding 2 cows to increase milk production, by so doing, milk will be enough for feeding the family and for selling. I also like to buy water pump to irrigate the farm because we are heading to a dry season period. Pump will help me to grow vegetables for sale.
I also like to buy wheelbarrows that I will be transporting manure from livestock to farm.
