About Me

My name is Harrison Kumi Larbi born in 1987 in a small village in Akwapem. I am the fourth born if my parent.I had my primary education at prestea sda and then went to Prestea experimental junior high school.I use to help people on their farms before I could fund my school fees until recently when I invested the money I have saved into poultry rearing,which has become my source of living and helps me pay my fees.it is also my source of joy.the unique thing about my land and culture is the fuf pounded by my people and the landscape with the mountains and the caves.I am not yet married but looking up to get a good wife and give my children the best of life.my hobby is cooking.

My Business

I am into poultry rearing,with 200 birds,i fetch water from a nearby stream and also buy my feeda from a certified agricultural product and the eggs and the broilers are the greatest on demand.I chose the business I have passion for the birds and its also resourceful.I use some of the profit to fund my university education,also I use some of the money to look after my cousins ,and also the youth leader in my area. I also reinvest some of the money to buy more poultry feeds and birdsso as to make more profit from the birds and their eggs.

Loan Proposal

Since there was an outbreak of bird sicknesses in my area, I lost some livestock birds, so I am going to buy in more livestock and also buy more feeds .the breakdown of my budget is as follows
Expenditure for BIRDS,FEEDS AND PESTICIDE FOR MY POULTRY
1.Number of day old chicks needed-50
Cost of each bird in dollars=$3.2
Total cost=50*3.2=$160
2.Feed
Number of bags needed for feed=3bags
Price for each bag=$27
Total cost=3*27=$81
3.pest control
A bottle of pesticide =$5
A bottle of weedicde =$5
Total cost =$10
Total for all expenses =$251
Then hse the remaining to pay my cousins school fees and feeding fee at school.
