About Me

I'm kiprono evans age 27.I cleared my secondary education in the year 2009 at the time Zidisha kicked off but didn't had a smartphone then.9 year down the line it has be hard starting dary farming due high cost of cows and fodder since I didn't had farm of my own.After one year I managed to raise some funds to lease a 1 acre farm and planted cabbages which gave ksh.40000.That's when I bought two cross breeds i raise for 2 years before they calf.their production was not pleasing hence not good profit.I sold them in the year 2015 and bought 1 high breed from a local farmer.This cow calf in 2016 June and have 12 months old heifer ready to be served by December 2017.What has boost my business is the demand for milk because residents like taking tea due low temperature and they don't take coffee. I have a tiny family a six old boy who wanna be a Doctor and a 1 month old girl.My spouse is PHO but currently don't have a job but help me in the farm.I spent most of my time of web researching of best farm practises.
