My hobby is sewing pullovers.
From the time i started selling fruits and vegetabls i have never ceased ,may be in some occasions. I normally sells pears , spinach,kales and other fruits in the season .In each an every day people must feed so my goods are always in demand. Each an every day people must come to the market and buy the vegetables.I fetch the vegetables from other farmers and later i take them to the market.During the market days, i make an average income of $50 per day. the money i geti spent it on school fees and feeding my children and i have two orphans who were left after my daughter died out of cervical cancer.
Dear lenders,
I would like to apply for a loan of $39.I am intending to buy sixty banana suckers for $30 and manure for $9. I want to utilize my farm well by adding more banana plants. Bananas are in great demand whether green or ripe. I will intercrop bananas with vegetables. Banana require less labor and attention. Once the banana start producing one banana will given me around $20 in a season and a banana plant can last for more than five years. So it will give me steady income each season for that period hence more income to cater for my needs and other expenses.
