About Me

I was born in our home village, " kagak". I was raised there for a while by my parents. They died when I was seven years old. Am the third born among six kids. I moved to live with my uncle for the rest of those years. I started my education in our village primary school. In 2009 I did my kcpe and passed to high school which I continued to work smart. I also passed but didnt get direct entry to the university . still have an ambition of continuing with education.. Since hardship is part of life while Persuing a goal, I just work smart and hard to achieve them.. I started farming from advice's that I was getting from friends and because it was the best opportunity for me. Most of the youth see farming as a job of old people coz it dirtify people. Am not married and I don't have a child.. I like playing football since I have talent in it. I help those who are needy to achieve in my capacity.

My Business

I grow vegetables, watermelon, onions and tomatoes which I sell to our local market. Most people depend on these for food. I saw this as the best opportunity for me. I get funds from the stuffs I grow and this is what I use to pay for the expenses. I use the profit made to improve my farming and to support those I can help grow in life. I intend to grow these crops on a large scale. Am also striving to have much that can help me grow other crops.

Loan Proposal

Am a small scale farmer who does farming as a business. I produces tomatoes, watermelon, vegetables, butternuts and even onions but this time I would like to grow tomatoes on large scale so that I may get higher profit. If given a loan, I would rent a land at 80 us dollars, plough it twice at 70 us dollars. Tomatoe seeds will cost me 150 dollars and Agro chemicals will be bought at 90 us dollars. Since we depend on irrigation, watering will cost 200 us dollars. Weeding will cost 120 us dollars , stakes will will give support for the tomatoes will cost 80 us dollars. As the rest I'll use for other farm maintenance. I would like to improve my scale of farming if given a chance and help those who are needy in our area and the community. I expect a profit of 80 percent.
