About Me
My name is Peter Mensah .I love work very well so I spent much of my weekends with my father in some of his vegetables farms down in the other side of the village. Cape coast is a city of green vegetation that most people actively engage their wards into some green vegetations and fresh environment Apparently , I got my self a plot of farmland released to me by my father and I then started the the green vegetable business too. As a student of Cape coast University, pursuing Agribusiness, I garnered much knowledge and experience from my field of studies and that has made me who I am today in my farming business.. I love green environment and for that matter green vegetable business.
My Business
Relative to my business, despite being a student, I have been into active green vegetation business in the growing of Cumcumber, Green pepper, organic carrot, lettuce and water melon. These are the vegetables and fruit crops that am into for all these while combining academic with business. It is infact not easy to say but actually very helpful most especially when one is able to raise some amount of monies to foot his/her bill.
I have being a happy student for all this year in using the abstract knowledge learnt from school into a practical field work. I can really say my education couple with my business is fantastic, because I sometimes make a turn over of about 430 GHS a week which equivalent to 110 USD .
I am glad to have survived in this hectic work season of mind.
I have used the money to invest in farming some spring onions.
I am currently making some harvest and will then need this funds to pay for transport cost and workmanship.
Loan Proposal
I really remain thankful and will like my lenders to support me in this one to pay for the transport cost and other labor cost in harvesting my farm produce.
The transport cost is 25 USD
And the labourers cost is 15 USD
Currently there is more rush on the with some organic vegetables.
Since I have some few customers on side I will to light up quickly to Convey this farm produce to them immediately. I hope this application will reach the expected level as soon as possible.
