Am Stephen kimathi age 27 having completed my primary school education in year 2006 at meru primary school I attended kanyakine high and Completed my secondary school education int the year 2011. I later joined maseno University to pursue a degree in Agribusiness Management , i have acquired sufficient knowledge in farm management systems to convert subsistence farming into modern agribusiness.

My Business

Tomatoes growing is my major farming activity.have ventured in it cultivation due to demand in the area and it daily requirements among the population... Growing a eighth of hectare of high yield kilele f1 with a cost of ksh10000 average returns is upto ksh80000. I used my portion of returns to reinvest back of the business and rest paid my school fees

Loan Proposal

if granted the money i will use it to acquire additional farm equipment IE i will acquire drip pipe system which will cost me around 150 dollars, the water system will help in achieving high return because of the system’s ability to efficiently conserve water by controlled delivery of water directly to the ground and also prevent disease transmission to others plants.
