My name is Kaboré Téwendé Maturin. I have a motor disability. I am married and have three children. I live in the Centre-Est region, which is composed of three provinces: Kouritenga, Koulpélogo, and Boulgou. I live in sector no. 1 in Tenkodogo. I am an accountant by trade but I am currently a cashier at the Tenkodogo regional hospital. I started raising chickens because a cashier's salary is not enough to provide for my family. The profits I earn from raising chickens allow me to improve my children's education, take better care of them, and help out my parents.
I raise local poultry. I buy three-month-old chicks and take care of them for three months before putting them on the market. There is high demand for chicken because it is currently the most widely-eaten meat in Tenkodogo, as the many chicken-roasters will attest to. Demand surpasses supply; therefore competition is nearly non-existent. Raising and selling chickens is profitable because for each sale, I make an acceptable margin after deducting expenses. The biggest risks I face are poultry diseases, but these risks are minimized because health monitoring is rigorous. My current monthly expenses are about 118$. Monthly sales are 200$; thus I make a monthly profit of 82$.
The poultry is ready to be placed on the market, before this I want to give them rich food to accelerate their growth to get a good price. This loan will be used to buy 150kg of corn for about $70, dried fish for about $30 and for veterinarian costs of $30 and for $20 for contingencies.
