I was born in the capital of Kenya, Nairobi, but we relocated to the upcountry while I was still a kid. Growing up in a rural area forms the bulk of my history. Early school life wasn't rosy.
Luckily, encouragement and guidance from my parents helped me pass my exams in primary and high school. Eventually, I joined the university to pursue applied statistics with a computing degree.
While I am a graduate, my ambition is to venture into agriculture and create employment. Over the years, I have tried my hand in farming with ups and downs. Although the journey is challenging, the future is bright.
My plan is to undertake profitable farming projects that help me grow financially and have a reverberating ripple effect in the community.
Specifically, I plan to specialise in livestock, horticulture and vegetable farming. Fortunately, I can testify to reaping income from farming activities. I plan to boost my farming venture for more development.
Eventually, I hope to do large-scale greenhouse farming. That said, I require an extra hand, to boost funds from savings and income and help realize my dreams. I am appealing to lenders to consider funding this endeavour.
As I said I have been doing agribusiness on small scale manner. since I don't have a larger portion increase the area of production I want to develop my farming.
Having said that my plan is to build a greenhouse to move to the next level of professional farming and be in line of my goal and vision of successful agribusiness man since a journey of thousand miles start with a single step.If get the funds I will use them 100% to construct a modern greenhouse. Am hopeful I will.Hence I will get more produce of high quality and hence more profit.
I will use the returns partially to expand my agribusiness and partially to improve my production. since i have small savings am hoping to buy manilla papers with this money and use my savings on other expenses like poles.
