About Me

I grew up in rural Kenya, and i managed to get education. I am university graduate in Bachelor of agriculture and veterinary studies. Since completing my studies i have not yet gotten a government job. So i decided to go into farming, so as to cater for my basic needs. I borrowed money from my sister to buy a green house so as to practice farming.
i decided to do farming so as to get good money to educate my kids .
I like doing voluntary work in my community during my free time.

My Business

I basically rear chicken, and do horticulture. I have 40 chicken some of which are laying eggs, and i also plant tomatoes, onions and cabbages.
I have equally started bee farming, right now i have 7 beehives which i am about to harvest in October.
i chose this kind of business coz it requires little capital to start and i have ready market for my products

Loan Proposal

I intend to build a unit to try dairy farming because they are very productive moreover it takes small space. so i intend to do dairy cattle, a grade one. I have already started to build a unit where i will keep the cow. i have set aside money to buy freshian cow, as well as lease a piece of land where i will plant nappier grass.
what i now need is a pulverizer machine that chops animal feeds. thia will make my work easy, for preparing hay.
pulveriser machine- 350 dollars
Feeds to start with - 50 dollars
other expenses- 55 dolars

    I am so grateful for the loan you gave me. I used the loan to buy a pulvilerise machine. I am now able to feed my animals comfortably. It has increased my yield. And I can now save more.
