My Business
Loan Proposal
My business is farming. I cultivate maize,beans,and other vegetables annually and after harvest, I sell to market women who are retailers. My farm is located in Odumasi in the Brong Ahafo region of Ghana, about 30km away from my town
I make two harvests in a year and after each harvest, I dry the crops and later sell to retailers.
Out of 10 acres of the land I cultivate, three and a half acres of the land is for beans whilst another three and a half is for cultivating maize and the other acres is for the cultivation of my vegetables
I am able to obtain about 10 bags of the two crops each, after each harvest and also enough vegetables for sale which i gets a lot of money, energy and time is invested during cultivation and harvesting of the crops. I employ the services of men and women who help me on the farm to clear the land, cultivate and harvest. I also hire tractors to plough the land. When the crops are cultivated, I apply fertilizers to help the crops do well
Dear lenders i need a loan of $100.00 to help buy fertilizer and some pesticides to apply on my crops so that i will be able to get more yield. My lenders ,my crops is in bad condition because of the pests which have started destroying my crops and i have to get this pesticides so that i can kill them.After killing the pest, i will also apply the fertilizer which will enable my crops to yield well. My dear lenders i will be very happy if you grant me this loan and i promise to repay my loan on time.Thank you.
