About Me

My names a kibet kimokilo i was born in rift valley province baringo county to a family of popular farmers of maize crop and tomatoes.
My survival during childhood was good despite financial problems which faced our family, My parents struggled hard to see me and fellow brothers through school some of us did not manage to complete school but i was lucky to have completed my high school education and joined a college in livestock and agriculture technology.
After campus i secure employment with local companies fro a while after saving enough capital i joined my parents in farming back at home.
I had a passion for farming and always believed its better to be self employed than to be employed.
With the skills i gained from school i have managed to train several farmers in my community on how to use natural fertilizers, manure and natural plants that acts like pesticides to cut the expensive cost of farm inputs. leaving the better than they used to be.
My hobbies are traveling and watching.





Thanks alot i plan to buy cow in which
I believe with this i will be able to reduce cost of manure and have good production.
Loan Proposal

Thank you for the support,
With this loan i find it very important to my projects, i Eish to add the amount i have of ksh 2500 and buy the fertilizers atKsht850 a bag of 50kgs , This will ensure high yield of tomatoes production.
Ksh250 will use to purchase pesticides the remaining amount of ksh 1900 i shall utilize it to prepare the land for plantation.
Since tomatoes is in high demand in my locality i find ready market for the same.
I believe with this i will be able to increase my profits to high margin of ksh 300 from the current ksh 150 per day.

My Business

I love livestock and farming with passion thats why i opted to do it since dad had a big unused land I so i decided to make use os it and improve my life to something better
With a rotation in harvesting we make profits of 350 us dollars a month and use to improve our life's education for siblings and family upkeep,i also do livestock farming to make more income

Loan Proposal

I will use my requested loan to build a good milking shade for my cow since the one I have is in not in a good condition the project will cost me 1500ksh, I also want to buy pesticides for my tomatoes and managu in the farm that will cost me 1400ksh.
