About Me
Am a residence of Subukia-Tetu farm and Kenyan citizen. Tetu is on your way to Nyahururu about three Km to Subukia center from Nakuru Plot number 201 Tetu Farm where I got married and am a farmer. I have been in farming since the year 2000 dealing in maize planting for domestic use but in to year 2006 I changed my profession of farming maize to tomatoes farming which I saw was profitable.
My Business
Most of the farmers grow long term crops. We started as a group of five people in 2007 where we decided to specialize in horticulture products such as tomatoes & cabbages. We formed a group where we were able to plant tomatoes but did not do well the first time. We decided that we would plant out tomatoes in an odd time i.e. when there would be no supply at that time so we decided to be doing that during the sunny season when other farmers are preparing their farm for maize plantation. By doing so we were able to raise good profit margin here we divided among ourselves.
Loan Proposal
when i get the cash from Zidisha i will first prepare the shamba for the cabbages then remove the cabbages form the seedbed for the October use because they will be a demand for the cabbages.also i will buy a kentank for storing rain water.when i get the cash from Zidisha i will first prepare the shamba for the cabbages then remove the cabbages form the seedbed for the October use because they will be a demand for the cabbages.also i will buy a kentank for storing rain water.
