My name is Tonny Lukalo. I live in Uasin Gishu County Annex Estate. I come from a family of 12 children. I am the 1st born in our family. I am a Christian with Living Rock church. I went to Cheplaskei High School and now am working in my farm as a farmer with my wife. I have attended Bukura training institute which has horticultural courses and later went to Naivasha which has a veterinary. This has helped me to have an idea of farming. But due to lack of finances, I was not able to grow from what little I have. Where I stay, people think that farming is meant for old or retired ones and you can't get money for the whole family but for me it has really helped me feed and keep my children in school. One of my children wants to be a vet doctor.
As a farmer, I have been involved in this field for 2 years and am planting vegetables and tomatoes, onions, etc. In our area, many schools and families need these items and they are using them a lot. I chose this kind of business because of high demand on the ground and in the community around us. It is also my passion to plant and sell for money so my family can have something to put on the table and to take them to school.
Hi zidisha family, I want to take this oppotuniny to thank the zidisha family in helping me realize the dream of my farm.With this loan i will buy a second hand motor bike that will cost 400 dollars,the bike will help in transporting my farm produse to the market. About 18% of cost is used in transporting my produse to the market and farm inputs to the farm.Since the fuel prizes have gone up the transport cost wil be much high so with the motor bike i will reduse the cost of production . So about 10 to 12% will be my profit increment with the money i will save from the transport i will add production of the farm hence more frofit.
