About Me
I am a dairy farmer from Kenya.I keep dairy cows in my small piece of farm.I was educated in my Village and schooled in the area schools that were not far away from my home.I underwent a lot of hardships before i made it in life.There were challenges in my childhood while growing up.I did not have good school uniform while schooling and also enough resources of learning and this created a lot of problems but i worked hard despite the challenges.I overcame all these challenges and came to start my dairy farming business through a bank loan that helped me realize my dream of becoming an entrepreneur.The uniqueness of my culture or rather the environment is the cool climatic conditions that it has and even which favors my dairy farming business.My children want to be entrepreneurs in the future with heavy investments to make.My unique hobby is reading novels and having nice time with my family.I also love jogging around a pitch to exercise.Another hobby or rather unique pastime of mine is listening to cool good music that are educative and have a strong message in them.
My Business
My business and main source of income is from dairy farming which i established some few years ago.My dairy cows produce milk which i sell to milk processing factories as well as in the ordinary markets.I collect manure as well and sell them to farmers in the village.The products that i deal in are in demand because they are of the highest quality and i sell them on the most fair prices in the market.My farm produce are healthy and suitable for human consumption.I operate my business on an average of thirty dollars weekly and earn twice the price weekly as well.I reinvest my profits back into the business and educate my children with the rest.I also save some little amounts in the bank for emergencies and future use and plans that i have for my business and family who are my first piority
Loan Proposal
Wild animals attacks as well as intruders and other domestic animals attacks on my farm have been random and this has cost me a lot in my business.It has resulted in me harvesting low quantity farm produce because majority are stolen by intruders or rather destroyed and consumed by wild and domestic animals that gain access to my farm.This has made me realize losses and decline in profits.I will thus use the loan to erect a fence around my farm to keep off the wild animals as well as the domestic ones and intruders who gain access to my farm and cause damage on the farm.This loan will benefit me because i will rescue my farm from destruction from these animals and intruders and my income will resume its normal curve.This will be a boost to my business and i will gain a lot from the loan.
