I am an animal scientist by profession and I have passion for commercial dairy farming. My parents were dairy farmers and that's how they managed to educate me. Consequently I developed passion for commercial dairy farming.
I currently have a dairy farm and I managed to start a dairy farm from my salary's savings. I need to hire 10 acres of land to plant fodder for the cows. This will enable me to grow and commercialize the farm.
I work with a vet pharmaceutical company and I expect to start earning from my dairy farm soon. I have several in calf heifers in the farm which will be lactating in a few months time.
I look forward to a establishing a successful dairy farm that will be a leader in milk production in my area in and impact the community positively through provision of jobs
I plan to buy a water tank to ensure enough water for my dairy enterprise at any given time.
I will use the loan to place a deposit for the purchase of the water tank. Subsequent loans will enable me pay for the water tank in installments.
There is a challenge with water availability in my home area and if given larger loans in the future after proving my creditworthiness, I hope to drill a borehole for provision of water to the community in my home area.
