My name is Safari Katana Kidhongo,married to one wife with four children,three are schooling while the fourth born still breast-feading and yet joined the school.I live Kakwakwani village in Chalani sub-location in Kaloleni location in Kaloleni division Kilifi county.I'm a farmer.I'm a class eight leaver learnt at Mtsengo primary school.I started this business basically to earn a living and to improve my family.I purchase various items from the earnings of my business such as manure,seedlings,jembes,water,pesticides,papers,fence wire,labour,huricanes for watering my plants and drinkers for my chicks etc.Also buy clothes,medicine,food and pay school fee for my children etc.
My business is farming; agricultural and livestock.It provides that rearing of agricultural plants and livestock in the same farm for commercial purposes.There is high demand of this business because people around our place/clients depend entirely on agricultural products.My customers prefer to my business because my prices are fare hence it is a manufacturer price and the products are ever available at my place.The business is profitable because,for instance I sell one hen at ksh:300 and a sack of okra at ksh. 600 and one sack of maize I sell at ksh:1500.Risks that face my business is security and storage.My typical monthly income is ksh:35000/= and my monthly expenditure is ksh:20000/= my profit is therefore ksh:15000/= of which can repay Zidisha loan without any problem.
I will use the loan in buying the following items;Local fertilizer worth 4.84543 dollars, seeds worth 2.42272dollars, pesticides and weeding-work 9.69086 dollars, transportation 2.42272 dollars, tools such as jembe, panga, rake, shovel, hoe etc worth 48.4543 dollars, packing and marketing 96.9086 dollars.
