Am Jemimah gathoni.My mother is a single mum by the name jane njambi.Am the third born in a family of 4.I went to school at kiganjo primary school in 1981.After primary school i went to kiganjo secondary school where i finished secondary education in1985.I did not pass well to go to the university and i went to kirichu polytechnic where i did a course in dress making.I finished in 1997and i opened a small tailoring shop at Kisangani shopping center.I remained there until 2007 when i realized that the shop was becoming unprofitable due to competition by second hand clothes.In 1999 i went home and started farming is there is plenty of land.My mother who passed on this year was a dairy farmer and i inherited the farming since am the only one at home among my siblings tow brothers and four sisters.I also farm cabbages carrots.kale.potato and tomato
my core business is farming where i mostly do daily farming.I do the farming in the family land.I have employed two farm hands but i occasionally hire temporally ones when a lot has to be done in the farm.I also far tomato potato kale cabbages and spinach.Farm maize and beans for subsistence.In good month i can make 60 d0llars in daily farming and an other 100 dollars in other farming.I save about 50 dollars monthly.If a get capital i can buy a water pump to enable me do arrogation since our farm is in the river frontage.In future with your help, i can buy a tractor to enable me do more farming since i only use a small part of the farm.we have a farm more than 20 acres yet am only able to farm 5 acres.The initial loan will enable me buy animal feeds which will increase milk production of my four cows.If i get capital i can upgrade the stock so that i keep hybrid cows for more milk production.I will also be able to introduce chicken and pork farming.Please you loans will help me very mush
when i get sh3800 after deduction of sh1000 zidisha application fee i will use sh1000 to buy tomato and cabbage seeds to germinate seedlings.I will use sh2000 for land predation where i will employ people to do land perpetration. i will use sh8000 to buy ten chicks for rearing.
my previous cabbage and tomato plots are due for harvesting within a week so i will not have problem.I will use the money i harvest to pay the loan
