About Me

I was raised up by a single mother after my dad passed on when I was only 3 years old.We are three children and I am the second born and the only girl. I went to sikulu primary school and later joined Sacred heart mukumu girls , I then joined Egerton university for degree agriculture.
After completing university education ,I was not able to secure a well paying job ,I secured a job as an office assistant and it didn't give the job satisfaction since I felt my agricultural knowledge was going into waste. With no job satisfaction and little pay, I decided to quit and venture into agribusiness.I had save $300 that I used to put up a poultry house and bought 200 layers to start with. I have been able to increase my stock to 300 birds and still increasing,my aim is to have 100 birds.
my hobbies include , singing , dancing and making new friends . I am also a youth leader and always provide advice and mentor ship to my young farmers group.

My Business

I am a young poultry farmer with 300 layers birds and looking forward to expand my business to have 100o birds. I currently provide eggs to my clients.The demand for eggs is high and I always receive orders from the buyers that I am unable to to supply.
The demand for eggs is high because it is an alternative cheap sour of proteins,compared to other products such as meat.
my monthly typical costs are $150-$200 and my monthly income per month are $350-$400 per month.
I use the profits to pay fees for my young brother and for farm expansion.thank you

Loan Proposal

Given the loan I would use the money to buy a 100 chicks that I would add to my three birds to make them 400. I would buy 40 chicks $1 and use the balance of $20 to buy feeds for the birds . I am looking forward to 25% in profits in the next three months when the birds start laying. Thank you
