About Me

I am a father of six children only one in high school, the rest have completed their education I live in Kahuho about 400 meters from Kiambogo trading center, plot number 474. The shopping center is also 400m from Kiambogo shopping Center. My occupation is farming (mixed farming) also I am also a member of elementaita S.H.G, I have a general knowledge.
I started a business of farming after having an education day of farming funded by Brookside Company, by the end of the day they promise us to be buying our milk, they also tell us to crossbreed the indigenous cattle by dairy breed which are highly productive in milk, but before I was dealing most with vegetable and maize/beans farming. I am expecting to purchase more cattle’s and chicken also I will purchase a piece of land to accommodate the feed of animal and farming of vegetable maize and beans.

My Business

My business is farming
My business includes cattle farming, chicken rearing and vegetable, beans and maize in small scale. They is a lot of demand of the product such as milk, because the milk is taken by the Brookside company dairy, and also so many people here rely on vegetable, beans and maize.
Most of the farmer in kiambogo have not yet crossbreed their cattle thus making me being the most of the few one who will produce much milk. The business will be profitable because most of the feed a get from my farm. The risk facing the business is poor road during the rainy season which hinders the transportation of the milk and farm products.
My typical monthly cost is khs 40000, sale revenue is around ksh 20000 and profit is above 15000 but I am planning to earning more.
