About Me

I was brought up by a single parent after the untimely demise of my father. Life became unbearable but God's intervention I was able to complete my senior secondary school education before I proceeded to the university for my first degree. Staying in the house for four years after completion without any job I decided to go into farming which is predominantly practised by the people of my locality. my only child has developed an interest in business after his secondary school education and I am planning to help him out.
I enjoy watching football matches. I get closed to $1500 each season in the year.

My Business

I am into farming producing maize. The land in this area is very rich in minerals . the people of my area grow crops like yam, cassava, plantain and cocoyam which cannot be stored for quite a longer period of time so I decided to grow cereal crop like maize which is highly demanded in periods of March to July. I spend about $800 as expenses. I use part of my profit to finance my child's education and reinvest the remainder in the business

Loan Proposal

I will use this loan amount to expand the size of my farm
With this expansion, production will increase steadily. Part of the amount will also be used to continuously buy pesticides and insecticides to enhance performance.
