About Me

A nurse by profession, a farmer, and a transport business man. I end my income from my salary, farming and transport business.

My Business

I m a farmer who cultivate yam ,maize and cassava. I also into transport by using kia truck to work and earn my daily income.My source of income is mainly from my salary, farming and the transport business I do.

Loan Proposal

It will be use to buy fuel and some for maintenance and others for chemicals for farming and the rest to settle those I employed to work for me

Income Source

It is very true that climate affects crops production. But with this a lot of farming techniques are involved. There's cultivation of long term and short term crops production. And also livestock production in case there's a failure in one farm products you can rely on the other crops to settle any loan that is involved.

    Unfortunately despite my previous positive review (which I will leave up here) with the last bigger loan Adamu dropped all contact and communication regarding making any repayments or recommitments so we don't know what happened. Unfortunate that he looses a great track record and will increase the cost of lending for other borrowers by defaulting. Hope everything is OK Adamu. This is where open communication from him would have helped tremendously.

    The loan l took helped me to increase productivity from 40%-85%. Infact my production level has increased. So profit was made l get money to pay my lights Bill's and employed labour to help me in the farming. Some people could not have a single product to harvest. Support those people to feed their families.

    1.I purchased agro chemicals and also employed labour.
    2. I have an increase in production about 70%.
    3. My earnings have increased about 60%.
    4. Yes but to further increase productivity.
    5. The profit made has helped me to pay bills. I gave some token quantities of the farm products to the old ladies and widows within the community.
    6. Traditional way of farming techniques people used baket to fetch water and use basket to water their crops

    The recent loan that I just repay was not just a loan but rather a big support to me. This helped me to employ labour to take care of my crops and also apply fertiliser to the crops. My productivity has increased. Ever since l have started farming l have experienced such an increase because there's no fun for the crops. As l joined the great Zidisha life has not been the same. Am indeed happy that am part of zidisha. I just want to say thank you. Am sure zidisha has came to help me. God bless you so much.
