My name is Gyabaa Christian. I was born Berekum in the Brong Ahafo Region. But i am now live in berekum. I was raised by both parents .We are of the family of six. that is four girls and two boys. I am the first child of my parents. i started my childhood education at SDA school. From SDA i went to Berekum secondary school.
After finishing my secondary education, my father introduce me into farming work. life was good for me because as young man , and what i want was provided for me. Now my father is old and he could not be able to operate on his farm any more so he asked me to take over on his farm work. And as the elder son it is my right to look after my young ones. i have to pay for my brothers and sisters school fees so that they can be come some one in future.
I am a farmer and i produce yam, cassava, plantain, cocoyam , etc to my town. My goods are on demands simply because they are food staffs that is essential to everyone, every household and they are really needed in daily life. I choose farming work because a lot of people in my area like fufuo and it the local food.
I started this business to open a market for my farm produce and also to create employment opportunity for myself and other people .If I invest $100, I will be able to generate $40 per week. i need this loan so that i can buy more yams, cassava,plantain for my farm and also employed people to work with.i like my farm because it made me happy when ever i goes to the farm and see my crops growing and am proud to be a farmer.
I will buy more plantain, cassava, yams etc to my farm and also buy tools to help me work with my farm. sometimes to get tools to work with becomes a problem so that the loan will help me to buy in large quantity. This will bring me a lot of profit to me and my family when i sell the crops . It will also help me to expand my business and employ others to work too. I no with the loan i can expand my business.
