My name is Sanogo Nissi Abou Bakary, I was born in Takaledougou January 1st 1983. I am married, and father to a three year old child. I live in a small village which is in the Banfora region, near the national highway and close to sugarcane fields. The village is 15 km from the town of Banfora. I studied in primary school in my village, and studied in Banfora for secondary school, while staying at a teacher's house. I reached the third grade of secondary school.
I am a farmer, and I well know that to work the fields properly, you must have fertilizer (compost). And to have fertilizer, you must raise animals. This lead me in 2011 to start raising poultry, with 2 hens. These 2 hens have really helped me, because from the sale of their fertilizer, I have been able to take care of all the celebrations at the end of the year, and also they have provided meat for my family. So far, this has also given me a little fertilizer, and allowed me to establish a relationship with sellers of poultry.
With Zidisha I expect to increase the number of hens, with the goal to be to have a great flock.
I am a farmer and also raise hens. I use animal dung as fertilizer for my crops. This new system of agriculture appeared in our region, and has been practiced by a Zidisha member named Traore Siaka with very good results. I decided to try it this year because the most important expense in breeding small animals is food. With this loan from Zidisha, I will buy some organic fertilizer. This is very important to my goal of increasing my harvest to reduce my poultry-breeding expenditures.
