About Me

I stayed with my Aunt in my childhood in a farming community, where I started my basic school from nursery to primary. I started some farming and trading during my junior high school to overcome hardship in other to realize my future dreams. My business started through advice from elderly farmer with his promise and support. The land is fertile and of great heroes with amazing cultural heritages. I would like my children to be entrepreneurs. I like been with radio for news and music.

My Business

I am into Cassava plantation for now. My products is very demanded and useful by starch factory, Gari processing and as well as food for human beings and animals consumption. Planting of cassava can serve me as employment because it has high demand and good returns that made me chose cassava plantation as my business. It cost 197dollars and revenue of GH 383. Profit is reinvested for planting, house keeping and others

Loan Proposal

I will prepare the land for cassava cultivation with the loan by clearing the weeds on the land for 59 dollars and hire a machine to plough the land for 74 dollars. Number one benefit to is the employment it will give me because I can enlarge my farm and my income too will increase. People too will be hired to work. The cassava produced will serve as raw materials for the starch factories and as a food as well for general people too.
