About Me

I come from a family of 7 brothers and 3 sisters of whom 3 are teachers and the remaining 6 are subsistence farmers. I have a family of one wife, three girls and a boy. I grew up in an environment of rice farming but of late, water is the major challenge.
I like horticulture and my main interest is indigenous vegetables which have a lot of nutritional value in our community.

My Business

My chicken farm is doing well but my serious challenge is acquiring feeds and handling diseases that require vaccination. I need money to improve the security of my farm.

Loan Proposal

I would use the loan to buy hose pipe for water distribution in the farm. So far I have a water pump but somehow I can't reach some parts of the farm because my pipes can't go far enough.
I also have a few mango trees that need regular watering. since the water point is far from the farm
