I am the second last born in a family of seven,i have been brought up in a Christian foundation. After i finished my primary level education i was unable to proceed with the secondary level due to unavoidable circumstances and lack of finance to fund my education,due to this prevailing circumstances i was forced to look for a way to earn my living, Its from here where i started rearing dairy goats with some funding from my relatives who were willing to assist me,the business was not more profitable at first but with time i started enjoying the fruits,the profit i make by selling milk i want to build a shed so i can start practicing zero grazing and add a different breed from the one i have.
As i am a farmer who rears Dairy goats,i sell milk and at sometimes i sell unproductive goats to butcher men,Many people prefer goat milk as they say it has high cream content than that of a cow i face no competition as many don't realize the profit i make is much,Though the business is more profitable i face few challenges one of the biggest challenge is the increased rate of animal rustling and i have lost at least five goats in the last incidence though security has been enhanced i still have worries to loose my heard
i would use 50% of the loan to buy materials so that i can build a big shed for my goats so that i can start practicing zero grazing and also to make it more strong so that my herd will be at least secure, 20% will be used to buy animal feeds like daily feed, salt lick and molasseses the rest 30% will be used to buy a different type of breed to add into my herd. hope bidders will fund my loan. thank you
