About Me

Iam grew up and did my education in the village . latter joined my secondary school in Kijabe Girls. latter did higher diploma in computer electronics.

I was able to overcame hardship to achieve my goals in life by starting my pig farming which after feasibility study found within six month I have a readily available market with farmers choice Kenya. we have one on one relationship with them and they come home to see my piglets.

I was employed since last year june 2014. By November I started the pig sheds and by january I had bought 20 piglets from farmers choice in kenya. I am waiting for a breed from farmers choice due in march.
MY CULTURE:
About my culture and land . I come from central. Not far away from the capital city Nairobi. I am able to visit my pig farming four times a week. Our temperatures are warm very conducive for the pig farming.

MY CHILDREN:
My son would like to be an architect while my daughter would like to be a doctor.

My hobbies are travelling, listening to music ,socializing and swimming.

My Business

Iam In farming, pigs rearing .

I had done my feasibility study through farmers choice and Egeton University where I attended one week course on Hydrophonic and pig rearing. We have one on one relationship with farmers choice who are our soul supplies of bacon sausages and pork in kenya.

in my village we are like 5 farmers .

I have spend total of Usd 8,000 including of building structure of Hydroponics unit and the structure .

I have sold the first 11 pigs and I have 11 remaining and I want to purchase some piglets.

Loan Proposal

I will be purchasing animal feeds at farmers choice in Kenya. A bag cost 2,400/-
I will manage to get some 2 to 3 bags which can take me for 3 weeks.

I will have a breather trying to raise the amount weekly.

    Hallo every one,

    Allow me to take this opportunity to thank our lenders for the wonderful job. I am so thankful for their kind heart.

    I received kshs 18,293 equivalent of usd 187.3 dollars .

    I am planning to purchase Barley for my Pig farming . I will manage to buy 6 bags which will cost me usd. 184 of which each bag cost me around usd. 30.7 dollars. I will be transporting them from a different town a distance of 89 miles
    I will top up with my little saving hence .I am planning to purchase 10 bags which will cost me usd. 307 dollars .

    Hopeful I will be able to feed my 20 pigs for 75 to 80 days having fed them 18 kg per day of which each 1 kg of barley is equivalent of 3 kg of animal feeds. or fully grown Barley as I had posted earlier along.

    That will give me ample time to repay my loan.
