About Me

Am Ebenezer Anyane. I was born and breed in Suhum a town in the Eastern region of Ghana. I schooled at Suhum New town Primary and JSS. I had my secondary education at Suhum Secondary Technical School, Suhum in the year 2009. After school I did small trading and farming. Now I am working as a shop attendant in an Agrochemical shop in Suhum. I work four days in a week. i have worked at the shop for about three years now. I applied and was admitted to the university of Cape Coast in 2014 to read the program Diploma in Psychology and Foundations of Education . I attend lectures on weekends and use the other free days to do farming. I am now cultivating cabbage. I have cultivated carrot, cucumber, lettuce, maize, Cassava and other crops grown in ghana here.

My Business

I do my own business. I grow cabbage, carrot, maize, cucumber and other cash crops on a large scale and sell the when they mature. The size of my farm depend on the land I get, the fund available for purchasing fertilizers, seeds, pay some labourers and other cost. Due to health benefits of vegetables, demand on vegetables have now increased. Request for vegetables from Restaurants, catering and food vendors, schools, and retailers have greatly increased. Maize, and cassava are staple foods in Ghana. It is being used in every home in this country of ours because they are cheap and can be found everywhere in Ghana. Increase in production will help sustain people who depend on this as source of food.
When we were kids, we go to the farm with our mother to farm and since that I have being farming to support me pay my fees and do other things.

Loan Proposal

I wish to apply for a loan which will be used to buy farm input for my cabbage and garden eggs farm. With a total of three acres farm, I'll need about twenty bags of NPK fertilisers at ghs100 per bag. I will also need about 40 sachets of insecticides (bypel) at ghs50 per sachet. Also, I will buy 100 gallons of petrol for irrigation at ghs19 per gallon. I will employ people and produce healthy vegetables for human consumption. With this, l expect about twenty percent increase in my profit. Thank you

    I posted that I was diagnosed with sciatica over a year now, fortunately I am a bit ok now and I've started my farming project. But I can't afford to pay the accumulated debt. I am therefore using this opportunity to reduce my repayment amount so that I can be consistent with the payment from now.
    Thank you
