About Me

My name is Nancy Muthoni, third born in a family of 6. I live in Kinangop Nyandarua county am married and I have 3 children (1 boy and 2girls).being a third born I had a lot of challenges as I was to assist in a lot of household chores and to set good examples to the rest of the sibling, In Kinangop we have good climate which is favourable to most of the crop including cabbages, carrot, French peas and irish potatoes. Almost all domestic animals does very well in this area but in my farm I rear 1 dairy cow and1 heifer, 5 sheep and poultry. Currently I want to diversify my dairy farming as it bringing good returns

My Business

Am a farmer mostly concentrating on dairy farming. currently I have 3 dairy cattle producing 30kg of milk per day we use 4kgs for subsistence use hence we sell 30.5kg per day to Tulaga farmers co-operative society at 0.4dollars per kg. 0n average am able save 106 dollars per month after meeting all my monthly expenses. Am intending to plant more fodder crops for my cow during August rains in preparation of the dry spell. Am intending to plant a hybrid maize variety which will take 4 months to mature and also buy a calf

Loan Proposal

With my first loan i want to buy specified maize seeds for planting which will cost 3odollars for 6 packet the rest will be used for fertilizer for planting and top dressing. With this i will have ample feed for my cows during January February dry spell.
