My name is Anastasia Ogana Miyoyo.
I was born in bomet kenya and attended kericho girls secondary school. After my form four my parents were not able to support me to university so I took a share of family land and started my tea farming.
My dad helped me pick up in the farming. I have 1.5 acres of tea land.I make a profit of $2000 per year. I love kericho due to its cool weather supporting tea farming.
I practice tea farming in kericho town kenya. I currently have 1.5 acres of land with tea plantations. I harvest tea every 2-3 weeks during their peak periods. I manage a good pay from the Tea Board Of Kenya where I sell my produce. Taking to account all the cost of labour, fertilizer, herbicides and all the other costs involved I get a profit of close to $2000 per year since the board pays yearly.
I am glad i was able to pay of my previous loan and I am happy I have do so much and developed my tea farming and earned some good profit from the plantation. I was able to employ a new worker on the plantation to help me perform land activities more faster within a short period of time. my dream is to grow this business to the next level and increase my earnings.
I would like to apply for another loan to help me purchase new gumboots for my workers to work on the plantation. thank you
