my name is peter iwoun. Graduate from jomo kenyatta university of agriculture and technology with a bsc in agribusiness economics and food industry management, Nov, 2017. 2nd upper .
Have undertaken other causes in driving and currently am among a team of researchers from jomo kenyatta university that has undertaking a study on urban food systems in Nairobi county.
my main income source if farming. green maize and vegetables.
am also involved in research activities that has helped sometimes get income to purchase farm inputs as exercise is seasonal
pay casual labourers who are working at the farm because I am not present
buying of pesticides for spraying cabbages and dewormers for the pigs
I could have requested more but the conditions are strict. I am not able to have 500/- and repay 5400/-. what you have provided is very little for my needs. I would request that you adjust the terms so that I can have at least 2000/-
The tasks are much more. Considering this planting season in busia, wanted also to purchase maize and bean seeds to be planted early next month . But am appreciating the fact that you 're willing to help continue with my projects currently underway
The maize seeds cost 3000/- for half an acre.
Land preparation costs 2000/- and I intend to use family labourer to plant.
This also applies to beans but it's only the price of seeds that bring the difference.
The fertilizer costs 1700/- per 25kgs bag of Diammonium phosphate hence two are required for both enterprises
Not forgetting top dress fertilizer and pesticides for spraying beans
