About Me
. My project made me be a role model and unique to my neighbors since to this far with Zidisha I am the only farmer producing the most quality and quantity products and , they frequently come to inquire about to manage the same. For now, with the second Zidisha Loan I will be able to at least contract a more improved feed store(unlike the one i have at the moment attached: Photo) and feeding troughs and an extension for calves am looking forward to make a complete zero grazing unit for Eight dairy cows of which I pray and believe with Zidisha I will Succeed.
My Business
My project provides me with a lot of products which earns me and my family.
With the next Zidisha loan I can do much and my project will be more modernized and assist most of the neighboring communities since with the profit, I had just started installing a Bio-gas structure Costing 400$ which i have in mind that i will share with the neighbors, and share of manure which have also assisted me a lot since most of the my fellow farmers come for to use in their farms, for this, i sell per a wheelbarrow at a cost, and sometimes assist them with the same without cost.
