About Me

My full name is renson mwamodi mweri. I am a married young man aged 26.
I am also a father of two .
The only economic activity I practise is agriculture.
I rely on farming to manage my family.
I also take care of my aged mother because my father passed away long ago.
I dropped out of school because of lack of school fees.
Our culture is based on farming.
Most of the people here are not educated because of challenges which hinder education.
I like watching football as well as playing it.

My Business

I deal with agricultural goods where by I grow crops such as maize, beans and peas.
The main challenges are weather variability .
I grow maize specifically for food whereas peas and beans is purposely for commercial.
Once the havest is ready I take them to the market since there is ready market.
The earnings I use to purchase seeds and other farm equipment.
This has also enable me afford most of the family needs like paying school fees for my first born.
When am not in the farm I also do transportation work(boda boda) using a motorbike which earns me 250 a day.

Loan Proposal

If I get this loan, I will use it to do farming in my farm in order to get maize for food and also sell the surplus in order to get school fees for my children and also to meet other basic needs.
I intend to use the loan as follows:
$100 for land preparation
$50 for seeds
$100 for planting
$50 for fertiliser
This loan will be of great help to me.
Thank you in advance.
